Airbus Helicopters H225 vs Bombardier Global 7500 vs Cessna 208b Grand Caravan Ex vs Dassault Falcon 8x

The Airbus H225 is a twin‑engine helicopter rather than a fixed‑wing airplane, optimized for offshore, SAR, and utility missions. Its practical range is roughly 500–700 nautical miles depending on payload and reserves, and it typically carries about 16–19 passengers in a transport configuration (more in high‑density layouts), trading speed and range for vertical‑lift access. The Cessna 208B Grand Caravan EX is a single‑engine turboprop utility aircraft aimed at short to medium regional legs and rugged airstrips. It commonly seats 9–14 passengers, with a typical range around 800–1,000 nautical miles depending on load. The Dassault Falcon 8X is a long‑range trijet business jet, built for intercontinental travel with a typical range around 6,450 nautical miles and usually accommodates about 12–16 passengers in a business cabin. The Bombardier Global 7500 is an ultra‑long‑range business jet, generally offering the longest reach here at about 7,700 nautical miles and typically carries roughly 14–19 passengers, emphasizing cabin space and global city‑pair capability.
