Airbus Helicopters H225 vs Bombardier Global 7500 vs Piaggio Avanti Evo vs Piper M600 Sls

The Airbus H225 is a long‑range twin‑engine helicopter focused on vertical lift and utility missions rather than point‑to‑point speed. It typically carries a larger group than the others, commonly around 16–19 passengers in transport configurations, with practical range on the order of roughly 400–500 nautical miles depending on payload and reserves. The Bombardier Global 7500 is an ultra‑long‑range business jet optimized for intercontinental travel. It offers by far the greatest range, around 7,700 nautical miles, and is usually configured for about 8–19 passengers depending on cabin layout, prioritizing comfort over maximum seating. The Piaggio Avanti EVO is a high‑speed turboprop business aircraft that sits between light turboprops and jets. It typically carries about 6–9 passengers and offers midrange capability, roughly 1,500–1,900 nautical miles depending on conditions and configuration. The Piper M600 SLS is a single‑engine turboprop aimed at owner‑operators. It is the smallest here, typically seating 4–6 passengers, with range around 1,200–1,500 nautical miles.
