Beechcraft King Air 260 vs Beechcraft King Air 360er vs Daher Tbm 960 vs Gulfstream G280 vs Piaggio Avanti Evo vs Pilatus Pc 12 Ngx vs Pilatus Pc 24

The Beechcraft King Air 260 and 360ER are twin‑turboprop aircraft; the 260 is typically used for shorter regional missions, while the 360ER is the long‑range variant, offering materially more range and endurance. Both generally seat about six to nine passengers depending on layout. The Daher TBM 960 is a high‑performance single‑engine turboprop, usually carrying four to six passengers with shorter range than long‑range twins, optimized for speed and owner‑pilot efficiency. The Pilatus PC‑12 NGX is also a single‑engine turboprop but in a larger utility category, commonly seating six to nine (and up to around ten) with strong range and cabin volume. The Piaggio Avanti EVO is a fast twin‑turboprop with jet‑like cruise and typically seats six to nine, offering solid mid‑range capability. The Gulfstream G280 is a super‑midsize business jet, seating about eight to ten with far greater range than the turboprops. The Pilatus PC‑24 is a light jet, typically six to eight passengers, with range below the G280 but above most turboprops, and combines jet performance with versatile runway capability.
