Bombardier Global 7500 vs Embraer Legacy 650 E vs Gulfstream G700 vs Leonardo Aw189

The Bombardier Global 7500 and Gulfstream G700 are ultra‑long‑range business jets designed for intercontinental missions. Both typically seat around 12–16 passengers in executive layouts, with maximum configurations higher, and both offer ranges in the roughly 7,500–7,750 nautical mile class, enabling nonstop city pairs like New York–Hong Kong or Los Angeles–Sydney (winds and payload permitting). The Embraer Legacy 650E is a large‑cabin, long‑range business jet in a lower tier: it commonly carries about 8–14 passengers and offers roughly 3,900 nautical miles of range, better suited to transcontinental or shorter international legs than true ultra‑long‑haul flying. The Leonardo (Agusta) AW189 is not a business jet at all but a super‑medium twin‑engine helicopter; it generally carries far fewer passengers in VIP or offshore roles and has a much shorter range, typically only a few hundred nautical miles, trading speed and distance for vertical‑lift access to remote sites, rooftops, and ships.
