Bombardier Global 7500 vs Daher Tbm 960 vs Enstrom 480b vs Piaggio Avanti Evo

The Bombardier Global 7500 is a long‑range ultra‑long‑haul business jet designed for intercontinental missions, offering roughly 7,700 nautical miles of range and typically seating about 14–19 passengers depending on cabin layout. The Piaggio Avanti EVO is a pressurized twin‑turboprop business aircraft aimed at efficient medium‑range travel; it generally carries about 6–9 passengers with a range around 1,700–1,800 nautical miles. The Daher TBM 960 is a high‑performance single‑engine turboprop optimized for fast, owner‑flown point‑to‑point trips; it typically seats 4–6 passengers with a range on the order of 1,400–1,700 nautical miles depending on reserves and cruise settings. The Enstrom 480B is a single‑engine piston helicopter focused on utility, training, and short‑range transport rather than long cross‑country travel; it usually carries 4–5 occupants with a practical range of roughly 200–300 nautical miles. Overall, the Global 7500 dominates range and cabin capacity, the Avanti EVO balances speed and efficiency for regional missions, the TBM 960 prioritizes single‑pilot performance, and the 480B serves short‑haul vertical‑lift needs.
