Airbus Helicopters H225 vs Enstrom 480b vs Piper M600 Sls vs Sikorsky S 92

The Airbus H225 and Sikorsky S-92 are large, twin‑engine helicopters aimed at offshore, SAR, and utility missions. Both typically seat around 18–19 passengers in high‑density layouts (configurations vary), and they offer medium-to-long helicopter ranges on the order of roughly 500–600+ nautical miles depending on payload, fuel, and reserves; the H225 is often cited with slightly higher maximum range figures, while the S‑92 is widely used with mission equipment and offshore reserves that can reduce practical legs. The Enstrom 480B is a light, single‑engine helicopter in a completely different class, generally carrying a pilot plus about 4 passengers (around 5 seats total) and offering a shorter range, typically a few hundred nautical miles. The Piper M600 SLS is not a helicopter but a single‑engine turboprop airplane, usually configured for 1 pilot plus 5 passengers (6 seats total). It generally offers the longest range of the group, roughly 1,000+ nautical miles, reflecting the efficiency advantage of fixed‑wing cruise.
