Narrative:
The crew made performance calculations for a take-off on runway 23 at Luanda International Airport. However, due to work-in-progress, the first part of runway 23 (length 3700m) was closed and the take-off was made from intersection E (length 2140m). Aircraft came airborne just at the runway end after the captain selected full thrust, noticing the insufficient runway remaining. Crew was aware of the work-in-progress, but did not select this during the performance calculation.
