Bombardier Global 5500 vs Dassault Falcon 6x vs Embraer Praetor 600 vs Gulfstream G280 vs Gulfstream G500

The Embraer Praetor 600 and Gulfstream G280 sit in the super-midsize class, typically carrying about 8–10 passengers. The Praetor 600 offers roughly 4,000 nautical miles of range, while the G280 is similar at about 3,600–3,900 nautical miles depending on configuration and reserves. Moving up to large-cabin, long-range jets, the Bombardier Global 5500, Dassault Falcon 6X, and Gulfstream G500 generally accommodate around 10–14 passengers, with typical executive layouts often in the 10–13 range. In range, the Global 5500 is usually quoted around 5,900 nautical miles, putting it solidly in the long-range category. The Falcon 6X is also long-range at about 5,500 nautical miles and emphasizes a very wide cabin for the segment. The Gulfstream G500 is in the same large-cabin family with an often-cited range around 5,200 nautical miles, offering intercontinental capability but usually less reach than the Global 5500 and slightly less than the Falcon 6X.
