The decision point on that takeoff occurs as soon as you dump the brakes!

Google "landing at Courchevel"--lots of videos of different airplanes landing there.

Re: Citation Short Field

That strip is very similar to this one in Napal, Lukla, where a tragic crash happened while attempting to land. Looking at the video, It is difficult to understand why the pic attempted an approach or did not abort at the first sign or worsening visibility.
