Airbus Helicopters H225 vs Enstrom 480b vs Leonardo Aw189 vs Pilatus Pc 24

The Airbus H225, Enstrom 480B, Leonardo AW189, and Pilatus PC-24 span two different categories: three are helicopters (H225, 480B, AW189) and one is a fixed‑wing business jet (PC-24). The Enstrom 480B is a light single‑engine helicopter best suited to short regional missions; its range is typically only a few hundred nautical miles and it generally carries about four to five passengers plus a pilot. The AW189 is a modern super‑medium twin helicopter with substantially longer reach, commonly around 450–500 nautical miles depending on payload, and it is often configured for roughly 12–16 passengers. The Airbus H225 is a larger heavy twin helicopter aimed at offshore and long‑range utility work, with range often in the 450–600 nautical mile class (mission dependent) and typical seating around 16–19 passengers. The Pilatus PC-24, as a light jet, is in a different performance bracket: it generally offers about 1,900–2,000 nautical miles of range and usually seats about 6–10 passengers, trading vertical lift capability for far greater speed and point‑to‑point range.
