Bombardier Global 7500 vs Daher Tbm 960 vs Enstrom 480b vs Gulfstream G700

The Bombardier Global 7500 and Gulfstream G700 are ultra‑long‑range business jets aimed at nonstop intercontinental travel, while the Daher TBM 960 is a single‑engine turboprop for fast personal and short business trips, and the Enstrom 480B is a light turbine helicopter focused on short‑range utility and point‑to‑point access. In range, the Global 7500 is typically around 7,700 nautical miles, edging out many peers, while the G700 is similarly ultra‑long‑range at about 7,500 nautical miles, both suited to routes like New York–Hong Kong or Los Angeles–Sydney with favorable conditions and payload. The TBM 960’s range is in the roughly 1,400–1,700 nautical mile class depending on reserves and speed settings, fitting regional missions. The Enstrom 480B’s range is far shorter, roughly a few hundred nautical miles, reflecting helicopter endurance and mission profiles. Passenger capacity also separates them: the Global 7500 and G700 commonly seat around 12–19 in executive layouts, the TBM 960 typically carries 4–6, and the 480B generally seats up to 5.
