Beechcraft King Air 360 Er vs Bombardier Global 7500 vs Enstrom 480b vs Pilatus Pc 24

By category, the Beechcraft King Air 360ER is a pressurized twin‑turboprop business/utility aircraft optimized for short-to-medium trips and access to smaller airports. The Bombardier Global 7500 is an ultra‑long‑range heavy business jet designed for intercontinental missions at high cruise speeds and with a large-cabin experience. The Enstrom 480B is a single‑engine turbine helicopter suited to short-range utility, training, and passenger transport where vertical lift matters more than speed and range. The Pilatus PC‑24 is a light-to-midsize “super versatile jet,” combining jet performance with the ability to operate from shorter and rougher runways than many business jets. In range, the Global 7500 leads at roughly 7,700 nautical miles, enabling true nonstop long-haul city pairs. The King Air 360ER typically offers about 1,500–1,800 nautical miles depending on payload and reserves. The PC‑24 is generally around 2,000 nautical miles, varying with configuration. The 480B is much shorter-range, typically a few hundred nautical miles. For passenger capacity, the Global 7500 commonly seats about 8–16. The King Air 360ER usually carries about 6–9. The PC‑24 typically seats 6–10. The Enstrom 480B seats up to 5.
