The Daher TBM 960 is a high-performance single‑engine turboprop, best suited to owner‑pilots and small groups, typically carrying about 4–6 passengers with an approximate range around 1,700 nautical miles. The Embraer Legacy 650E is a large-cabin business jet derived from the ERJ family, generally configured for roughly 10–13 passengers and offering about 3,900 nautical miles of range, making it well matched to transcontinental missions. The Dassault Falcon 8X is an ultra‑long‑range trijet with strong short‑field and airport‑flexibility credentials, commonly seating about 12–16 passengers and reaching roughly 6,450 nautical miles, enabling many intercontinental city pairs. The Gulfstream G700 sits at the top end as a flagship large/ultra‑long‑range jet with a very spacious cabin, typically accommodating about 13–19 passengers and offering roughly 7,500 nautical miles of range, targeting the longest nonstop corporate routes.
