Bombardier Global 7500 vs Cessna 208b Grand Caravan Ex vs Dassault Falcon 8x vs Sikorsky S 92

The Bombardier Global 7500 and Dassault Falcon 8X are ultra-long-range business jets, while the Cessna 208B Grand Caravan EX is a single‑engine utility turboprop, and the Sikorsky S‑92 is a medium lift twin‑engine helicopter aimed at offshore, SAR, and VIP transport. In range, the Global 7500 leads at roughly 7,700 nautical miles, enabling very long nonstop intercontinental missions. The Falcon 8X is close behind at about 6,450 nautical miles, also designed for long-haul city pairs but typically with slightly shorter legs than the Global. The Grand Caravan EX has a far shorter range, generally around 900–1,200 nautical miles depending on load and reserves, optimized for regional and remote-strip operations. The S‑92’s practical range is typically around 500–600 nautical miles, reflecting helicopter fuel and speed constraints. Passenger capacity follows mission profiles: the Global 7500 and Falcon 8X usually seat about 12–16 in business configurations. The Grand Caravan EX can carry up to about 9 passengers (or more in utility seating), while the S‑92 commonly carries around 12–19 passengers depending on layout and mission equipment.
