Airbus Helicopters H225 vs Dassault Falcon 8x vs Embraer Legacy 650 E vs Piper M600 Sls

The Airbus H225 is a heavy, twin‑engine helicopter, suited to offshore and utility missions rather than long nonstop fixed‑wing travel. Its practical range is roughly around 500–700 nautical miles depending on payload and reserves, and it typically carries about 16–19 passengers (with layouts varying by mission and safety requirements). The Dassault Falcon 8X is an ultra‑long‑range large‑cabin business jet designed for intercontinental missions, with a range around 6,450 nautical miles and typical seating for about 12–16 passengers (certified higher, depending on configuration). The Embraer Legacy 650E is a large‑cabin, long‑range business jet positioned below the 8X for nonstop reach, offering about 3,900–4,000 nautical miles of range and typically seating around 13 passengers. The Piper M600 SLS is a single‑engine turboprop (personal/business aircraft), optimized for owner‑pilot operations and short to midrange trips, with roughly 1,400 nautical miles of range and seating for up to 6 occupants (commonly 5–6 including the pilot).
