Bombardier Global 6500 vs Dassault Falcon 8x vs Dassault Falcon 900lx vs Gulfstream G600

Bombardier’s Global 6500 and Gulfstream’s G600 sit in the large-cabin, long-range class, while Dassault’s Falcon 8X is an ultra-long-range large-cabin aircraft and the Falcon 900LX is a slightly older-generation large-cabin long-range trijet. In range terms, the Falcon 8X typically leads this group at about 6,450 nm, giving it the broadest nonstop mission flexibility. The Global 6500 follows at roughly 6,600 nm in some references but is commonly quoted around 6,600 nm; the G600 is close behind at about 6,600 nm as well (depending on assumptions), while the Falcon 900LX is shorter-legged at about 4,750 nm. For passenger capacity, all can be configured for high-density layouts, but typical executive seating is broadly similar: Global 6500 and G600 often seat around 13–15, Falcon 8X around 12–16, and Falcon 900LX around 12–14. Overall, choose the 8X for maximum range, the Global 6500 or G600 for modern long-range large-cabin capability, and the 900LX for proven trijet performance with comparatively less range.
