The 'what could go wrong' bit was in jest.
Having done a few night ships in jetrangers in various places I still think the approach is more hazardous than the departure.
The takeoff is all in the technique and if trained properly it should be no big deal assuming no mechanical failures. It is an IFR takeoff and needs to be treated as such.
If an overtorque happens the machine is probably too heavy for the conditions, or has been mishandled.
There is no substitute for proper training for this kind of operation.
