None of the rest of your babble is relevent to the subject video. It was traveling northwesterly from a point between 15 and 35 miles away, but the exact distance cannot be determined from the static picture in the video.

Static exhaust plume? Where do you get such stuff? If the "plume" is being laid out across the sky in the video recording, it's certainly not static. If the source was traveling northwesterly from a point between 15 and 35 miles away, was observed after boost phase (with a speed of over 15,000 miles per hour, if it was a missile) over a 10 minute span of time, then less than 1 minute later after the end of boost phase it would have been over 250 miles to the northwest of the observer. You notice there were also gaps in the exhaust trail that are not consistent with a rocket exhaust trail but are consistent with a jet contrail.

.
Where is the vehicle when the video starts?

Its way down range, so the plume is static for the only important portion, the launch. In fact, the launch plume is already blown downwind, as can be seen from the displacement gap.
