Cessna Citation Xls vs Daher Tbm 960 vs Enstrom 480b vs Pilatus Pc 24

The Cessna Citation XLS+ and Pilatus PC-24 are light jets, while the Daher TBM 960 is a high-performance single‑engine turboprop and the Enstrom 480B is a turbine helicopter. For range, the PC-24 is typically the longest-legged of the group at roughly 2,000 nautical miles class, suitable for longer city pairs; the XLS+ and TBM 960 are broadly similar and usually fall in the mid‑1,500 to ~1,800 nautical mile class depending on reserves and mission profile; the 480B is far shorter, generally a few hundred nautical miles. Passenger capacity follows a similar pattern: the PC-24 commonly seats about 6 to 10 passengers, the XLS+ is typically configured for about 7 to 9, and the TBM 960 is usually 4 to 6 passengers in comfort (up to about 6 to 7 seats including belted seating depending on layout). The Enstrom 480B generally carries a pilot plus about 4 passengers, emphasizing vertical access over speed and range.
