This long Beech shows it can fly low-level during a tactical take-off from Kandahar. Retracting gear, continue low level, building up as much speed as possible and then zoom into the air, in this way the crew prevents (a little) being shot by Taliban (and it's fun too...). The Beech was operated by Norse Air Charter that cancelled its operations by late 2011. The Beech was then transferred to Sahel Aviation Service as TZ-PJO.
