Beechcraft King Air 260 vs Cessna Grand Caravan Ex vs Daher Kodiak 100 Series Iii vs Daher Tbm 910 vs Pilatus Pc 12 Ngx

The Beechcraft King Air 260 and Pilatus PC-12 NGX are pressurized, turboprop business aircraft aimed at fast, comfortable regional travel. The King Air 260 typically carries about 6–9 passengers with roughly 1,500–1,700 nm range depending on load and reserves, while the PC-12 NGX commonly seats 6–9 (up to about 10 in some layouts) and generally offers longer legs around 1,700–1,800+ nm, making it strong for nonstop city-pair flexibility. The Daher TBM 910 is a pressurized, high-speed single-engine turboprop optimized for owner-pilot and executive missions. It usually seats 4–6 passengers and delivers the longest range in this group, often around 1,700–2,000+ nm, but with less cabin volume than the PC-12 or King Air. The Cessna Grand Caravan EX and Daher Kodiak 100 Series III are utility/short-field single turboprops, typically unpressurized, focused on rugged operations. Both commonly seat up to about 9 passengers; range is generally shorter, often around 900–1,200 nm, varying significantly with payload, conditions, and fuel reserves.
