Bombardier Global 7500 vs Daher Tbm 960 vs Enstrom 480b vs Piper M600 Sls

The Bombardier Global 7500 is a long‑range, large‑cabin business jet designed for intercontinental travel. It offers by far the greatest range (about 7,700 nautical miles) and the highest practical passenger capacity, typically seating around 8–14 in a spacious cabin depending on configuration. The Daher TBM 960 is a single‑engine turboprop in the high‑performance personal/business category. It is optimized for fast regional trips with a range around 1,700 nautical miles and typically carries 4–6 passengers plus a pilot, with a smaller cabin than light jets. The Piper M600 SLS is also a single‑engine turboprop, positioned as a pressurized personal aircraft with advanced automation. It generally seats up to 6, with real‑world passenger loads often lower depending on fuel and baggage, and has a range on the order of roughly 1,400–1,500 nautical miles. The Enstrom 480B is a single‑engine turbine helicopter aimed at utility, training, and short‑range transport. It typically seats 4–5 and has the shortest range here, roughly 300–400 nautical miles, but offers point‑to‑point access where runways aren’t available.
