Airbus Helicopters H125 vs Leonardo Aw109 Grand New vs Leonardo Aw119kx vs Leonardo Sh09 vs Robinson Helicopters R44 Raven I vs Robinson Helicopters R44 Raven Ii

Airbus Helicopters’ H125 sits in the light single-engine utility category and typically offers the longest practical reach among these singles, with a common seating of about 1 pilot plus 5–6 passengers depending on fit. Leonardo’s AW119Kx is also a light single, generally configured for 1+6, with range usually in the mid-to-upper tier for this group, though often less than an H125 in comparable reserves. Leonardo’s SH09 is a modern light single (new-generation), aimed at utility and EMS-style missions; it is typically positioned around 1+6 seating with range broadly comparable to other light singles, depending on final configuration. The Leonardo AW109 Grand New is the outlier as a light twin-engine helicopter; it is faster and typically offers strong IFR/mission capability, usually seating about 1–2 pilots plus 6–7 passengers, with range often competitive but mission-dependent. Robinson’s R44 Raven I and Raven II are lighter piston singles, commonly 1+3 seats, and generally have shorter range than the turbine singles; Raven II is the newer variant with modest performance and useful-range improvements over Raven I.
