Bombardier Challenger 3500 vs Bombardier Challenger 650 vs Bombardier Global 8000 vs Pilatus Pc 24

The Bombardier Challenger 3500 and Pilatus PC-24 sit in the super-midsize/light-jet space, while the Bombardier Challenger 650 is a large-cabin jet and the Bombardier Global 8000 is an ultra-long-range flagship. For range, the PC-24 is the shortest-legged at roughly 2,000 nautical miles class, suited to regional missions. The Challenger 3500 typically reaches about 3,400 nautical miles, enabling many transcontinental trips. The Challenger 650 extends further to about 4,000 nautical miles, adding more nonstop city-pair flexibility with a larger cabin. The Global 8000 leads decisively at roughly 8,000 nautical miles, designed for true intercontinental nonstop routes. Passenger capacity follows cabin size: the PC-24 is commonly configured for around 6–8 passengers, the Challenger 3500 typically around 8–10, and the Challenger 650 usually around 9–12 in executive layouts. The Global 8000 generally carries about 8–16 depending on configuration, with the greatest space and amenities for long-haul comfort.
