The Boeing BBJ MAX 9 is a long-range, VIP-configured airliner (large business jet) designed for intercontinental travel. It offers the greatest range of the four at roughly 6,000–6,600 nautical miles depending on fit and mission, and the highest capacity, typically configured for about 25–50 passengers in executive layouts (with much higher potential in airline-style seating). The Daher TBM 960 is a high-performance single‑engine turboprop business aircraft aimed at fast regional trips. Its range is about 1,400–1,700 nautical miles, and it generally carries one pilot plus up to three or four passengers (up to six seats total depending on configuration). The Enstrom 480B is a light single‑engine piston helicopter used for utility, training, and short‑hop missions. Range is typically around 250–350 nautical miles with seating for a pilot and up to four passengers. The Sikorsky S‑92 is a medium/heavy twin‑engine helicopter optimized for offshore and executive transport. Its range is about 500–600 nautical miles, and it commonly carries around 12–19 passengers depending on interior and fuel.
