Airbus Helicopters H225 vs Bell 525 Relentless vs Bombardier Global 7500 vs Enstrom 480b

The Airbus H225 and Bell 525 Relentless are large, long-range helicopters aimed at offshore, SAR, and corporate/VIP missions, while the Enstrom 480B is a light utility helicopter for shorter trips and training/utility roles; the Bombardier Global 7500 is an ultra-long-range business jet built for intercontinental travel at high speed and altitude. In range, the Global 7500 dominates at roughly 7,700 nautical miles, enabling nonstop city pairs like New York–Hong Kong under typical conditions. The H225 and Bell 525 are far shorter-legged but still “long-range” for rotorcraft: the H225 is commonly cited around 450–500+ nautical miles depending on configuration, and the Bell 525 is in a similar class, often quoted around the 500-nautical-mile range. The Enstrom 480B is shorter range, typically on the order of a few hundred nautical miles. For passenger capacity, the Global 7500 is usually configured for about 8–19 passengers, the H225 can carry roughly 19 passengers (high-density seating), the Bell 525 is typically around 16–20, and the Enstrom 480B generally seats up to 5 including the pilot.
