Show me a 10 passenger C560, first! Second, assuming you meant 8 passengers and 2 crew, your load exceeds ZFW by, at least, 150 pounds in an XLS+, more in an Excel. Third, the PDX 7 departure has a min climb gradient of 350 ft/nm or greater and numerous close-in obstacles, do you have a runway analysis provider? Fourth, the Excel cannot do this trip, probably in either direction, with your fictional payload. Any other bright ideas? I could do it in GLEX without even trying.

I've answered your BS questions, now answer one simple, do you calculate accel-stop distance on each take-off to justify a decision to reject after V1?
