Beechcraft Kingair Denali vs Daher Kodiak 100 Series Iii vs Pilatus Pc 12 Ngx vs Piper M600 Sls

The Beechcraft King Air Denali and Pilatus PC-12 NGX sit at the top end of this group as pressurized single‑engine turboprops aimed at longer cross‑country utility and executive travel. The PC-12 NGX is the established benchmark with typical IFR range around 1,700–1,800 nm and seating commonly 6–9 passengers depending on interior. The Denali targets a similar role with broadly comparable cabin class and passenger flexibility, with projected range in the roughly 1,600 nm class and typical seating in the 6–9 range. The Daher Kodiak 100 Series III is a rugged, fixed‑gear STOL utility turboprop optimized for short and unimproved strips rather than maximum cruise or range. It generally carries up to about 10 occupants including the pilot, with typical range around 1,000–1,200 nm depending on load and reserves. The Piper M600 SLS is the most personal‑aircraft oriented option: a pressurized turboprop positioned for owner‑pilots, usually seating 4–6, with range typically around 1,400–1,500 nm.
