Beechcraft King Air 360 vs Beechcraft King Air 360er vs Cessna Citation Cj3 vs Daher Tbm 960 vs Embraer Phenom 300e

The Beechcraft King Air 360 and 360ER are twin‑turboprop aircraft in the light business/utility category. They typically seat about 6 to 9 passengers in executive layouts (more in commuter configurations). The 360ER is the long‑range variant, offering meaningfully more range than the standard 360, making it better for longer legs or added reserves while keeping similar cabin size and payload flexibility. The Daher TBM 960 is a single‑engine turboprop in the high‑performance personal/business category. It is usually configured for around 4 to 6 passengers, and it delivers long range for its class, generally competitive with or better than many turboprops, but with less cabin volume than the King Airs. The Cessna Citation CJ3+ is a light jet, typically carrying about 6 to 9 passengers. Its range is suited to regional and some transcontinental missions, generally less than the longest‑range turboprop options but faster in cruise. The Embraer Phenom 300E is a light jet (often considered top of its class), commonly seating 6 to 10, with range generally comparable to or better than the CJ3+ and strong overall speed and payload performance.
