Cessna 208b Grand Caravan Ex vs Daher Tbm 960 vs Dassault Falcon 8x vs Gulfstream G700

The Cessna 208B Grand Caravan EX is a single‑engine turboprop utility aircraft suited to short‑haul, rugged operations. It typically carries about 9 passengers (often more in commuter layouts) and has a comparatively short range, roughly in the 900–1,200 nautical mile class depending on payload and conditions. The Daher TBM 960 is a high‑performance single‑engine turboprop in the personal/corporate category, usually configured for about 4–6 passengers, with longer reach than the Caravan at roughly 1,400–1,700 nautical miles. The Dassault Falcon 8X is an ultra‑long‑range business jet, commonly seating around 12–16 passengers, with intercontinental range around 6,400–6,500 nautical miles. The Gulfstream G700 is a flagship ultra‑long‑range business jet, typically configured for about 13–19 passengers, and offers even greater long‑haul capability at roughly 7,500 nautical miles. Overall, the comparison progresses from rugged short‑range utility (Caravan), to fast owner‑flown turboprop travel (TBM), to intercontinental large‑cabin jets (Falcon 8X and G700).
