How the hell would you know what either engine failure or a spin looks
like?

Remember. You can't and don't fly.
I'd guess that this was an aft CofG.with all that that implies to the
pilots here...

MX's idea of an aft CG is leaning back in his chair as he yanks his joystick.

Well I downloaded the video that he linked to and watched it.
Once!
If you download it you'll notice high nose, inability to maintain
track and no climb out of ground effect.
Wrong side of the power curve killed them- Hide quoted text -

Yes, aft COG probably led to an early rotation he did not prevent with
forward pressure. With a very loaded aft COG it feels like the plane
wants to lift off but you must keep one eye on the ASI and keep that
nose down until you reach an increased rotate speed -or the end of the
runway...


Yup.
