Bombardier Global 7500 vs Dassault Falcon 8x vs Robinson R66 vs Sikorsky S 92

The Bombardier Global 7500 and Dassault Falcon 8X are ultra-long-range business jets, while the Robinson R66 is a light single-engine turbine helicopter and the Sikorsky S-92 is a large twin-engine medium-lift helicopter used for offshore, executive, and SAR-style missions. In range, the Global 7500 leads at roughly 7,700 nautical miles, enabling nonstop intercontinental trips; the Falcon 8X is slightly shorter at about 6,450 nautical miles but still firmly in the long-haul category. Helicopter ranges are far lower: the R66 is typically around 300–350 nautical miles depending on reserves and conditions, and the S-92 is commonly in the 500–600 nautical mile class with auxiliary fuel options affecting this. Passenger capacity also separates them: the Global 7500 generally seats about 14–19 in typical executive layouts, and the Falcon 8X about 12–16. The R66 usually carries a pilot plus up to four passengers (five seats total). The S-92 commonly carries around 19 passengers in transport configuration, or fewer in VIP layouts.
