Daher Tbm 960 vs Dassault Falcon 8x vs Piaggio Avanti Evo

The Daher TBM 960 is a high-performance single‑engine turboprop, typically operated as an owner-flown or small-company aircraft. It generally carries about 4 to 6 passengers in a pressurized cabin (with seating configurations up to around 6) and offers long turboprop legs, roughly on the order of 1,500–1,700 nautical miles depending on reserves, payload, and speed settings. The Piaggio Avanti EVO is a twin‑engine turboprop positioned closer to entry-level business aircraft in comfort and speed. It commonly seats about 6 to 7 passengers (often up to 8 in some layouts) and provides a similar or somewhat longer practical range than the TBM in many missions, roughly around 1,700–1,900 nautical miles, with a larger cabin feel than most single-engine turboprops. The Dassault Falcon 8X is a long‑range, large‑cabin tri‑jet in a different class entirely. Typical executive layouts seat about 12 to 16 passengers, and its intercontinental range is far greater—around 6,000+ nautical miles—enabling nonstop city pairs that are out of reach for turboprops.
