From an untrained observer (via LA TIMES): was second attempt at takeoff, and it looked like "the tail was bouncing off the ground."

Failure to accelerate; early rotation?

Other points:

5 on board (three "teens", 2 adult) plus fuel for 300 nm + reserve. Useful load about 2100 lbs for the T310Q.

How does all that stack up?
