Bombardier Global 7500 vs Enstrom 480b vs Md Helicopters (mcdonnell Douglas) 902 Explorer vs Robinson R66

The Bombardier Global 7500 is a long‑range, large‑cabin business jet designed for intercontinental travel. It offers the greatest range by far (about 7,700 nautical miles) and typically carries around 14–19 passengers depending on configuration, making it suited to nonstop city‑pair missions and high‑comfort corporate travel. The Enstrom 480B is a light single‑engine piston helicopter aimed at utility, training, and short regional hops. Its range is much shorter, roughly on the order of 200–300 nautical miles, and it typically seats up to 5 (pilot plus four). The MD Helicopters 902 Explorer is a light twin‑engine helicopter focused on public service and corporate/utility roles. It generally carries about 6–8 people and has a moderate helicopter range, commonly around 300–400 nautical miles. The Robinson R66 is a light single‑engine turbine helicopter used for private, utility, and charter work. It usually seats 5 and offers range similar to other light helicopters, roughly about 300–350 nautical miles.
