Beechcraft King Air 360 Er vs Boeing Bbj Max 9 vs Daher Tbm 960 vs Piaggio Avanti Evo

The Daher TBM 960 and Piaggio Avanti EVO are both high-performance turboprops, but they sit in different niches. The TBM 960 is a single‑engine personal/business aircraft suited to owner-operators, typically carrying about 4–6 passengers with range roughly around 1,400–1,700 nautical miles depending on payload and reserves. The Avanti EVO is a larger twin‑engine turboprop executive aircraft, usually configured for about 6–9 passengers, with a typical range around 1,400–1,700 nautical miles. The Beechcraft King Air 360ER is a twin‑engine turboprop in the utility/executive category, offering more cabin volume and operational flexibility than the TBM, commonly seating about 6–9 passengers (with higher-density layouts possible) and delivering extended range generally around 1,500–1,800 nautical miles. The Boeing BBJ MAX 9 is in an entirely different class: a long‑range VIP airliner based on the 737 MAX 9, typically configured for a few dozen passengers in luxury layouts (often 25–50+), with intercontinental range on the order of roughly 6,000 nautical miles depending on configuration.
