Is anyone able to calculate the weight & balance for this aircraft type?

Let's assume pilot + 4x pass (well above std 80kg), 4x full golf clubs + 4 x heavy suitcases packed for their trip from initial origin in the US (worst case).

+ full fuel (for return 2 hour trip + reserves)

How does this stack up with even slight power loss on take-off?

What if all the pax were seated at the very front or rear of the aircraft (or all on the left side to see the view of Melbourne CBD as they departed - which incidentally was the direction the aircraft turned).

Interested if this throws up any red lights?
