Beechcraft King Air 360er vs Daher Kodiak 100 Series Iii vs Daher Tbm 960 vs Pilatus Pc 12 Ngx

All four are pressurized single- or twin‑turboprop utility aircraft, but they sit in different categories. The Beechcraft King Air 360ER is a twin‑engine business turboprop aimed at corporate and special‑mission use, offering the longest endurance in this group with roughly 2,000+ nautical miles of range depending on payload, and typically seating about 6–9 passengers in an executive layout. The Pilatus PC‑12 NGX is a large single‑engine executive/utility turboprop, generally carrying about 6–9 passengers with around 1,700–1,800 nautical miles of range. The Daher TBM 960 is a high‑performance single‑engine “personal/business” turboprop optimized for speed rather than cabin volume; it typically seats 4–6 passengers and offers roughly 1,400–1,700 nautical miles of range. The Daher Kodiak 100 Series III is a rugged utility/STOL turboprop for short and unimproved strips; it can carry up to about 9–10 passengers but has shorter legs, commonly around 1,000–1,300 nautical miles depending on configuration and load.
