Actualy this is the second MD-11 accident on take-off. The first was a Korean Airlines in april 1999. Cargo shifting or weight problems are all possibilities but, you can check the ZFW and CG indications on the EICAS. An other factor to dial in is, the tail tank fuel managment. Wrong fuel distribution will degrade your T/O preformance!
