Daher Tbm 960 vs Dassault Falcon 2000lxs vs Embraer Praetor 600 vs Pilatus Pc 12 Ngx vs Piper M600 Sls

The Daher TBM 960 and Piper M600 SLS are pressurized single‑engine turboprops suited to owner‑pilots; they typically carry about 4–6 passengers in comfort (up to 6 seats), with ranges roughly in the 1,200–1,700 nm class depending on reserves and load. The Pilatus PC‑12 NGX is a larger single‑engine turboprop, generally accommodating 6–8 passengers (often up to 9–10 seats in high‑density layouts) and offering longer legs, commonly around 1,500–1,800+ nm, with strong flexibility for short or unimproved runways. The Embraer Praetor 600 is a super‑midsize business jet aimed at faster point‑to‑point travel; it typically seats 8–12 and delivers transcontinental capability around 3,600–4,000 nm. The Dassault Falcon 2000LXS is a larger, twin‑engine large‑cabin jet; it commonly carries about 8–12 passengers and provides intercity/transcontinental range around 3,800–4,000 nm, with greater cabin volume and runway performance than many peers.
