Thats true, but you knew that you were out of trim. Now this guy did a rolling takeoff, which can be a handful if one engine bites and the other doesn´t - and might have greatly "helped" to cover up the mis-trim.

Lets say it that way: I have seen People Operate with 13000+lb on 800m Rwys in similar Weather. And I know, with 2 Engines it will work.
IIRC the C-12 (the military version of the B200) is flown to 13500lbs MTOW. With 2 engines that is no issue at all as you said...

And by the way, i was CRI/TRI on the King Air until i decided to not revalidate it.
me too, but these days I just think EASA (and "my" authority) should copulate with themselves...
