Daher Tbm 960 vs Gulfstream G700 vs Pilatus Pc 24 vs Robinson R66

The Daher TBM 960 is a high-performance single‑engine turboprop (personal/corporate transport) with roughly 1,500–1,700 nm of range depending on reserves and cruise profile, typically carrying 4–6 passengers in a pressurized cabin (up to about 6–7 seats installed). The Gulfstream G700 is an ultra‑long‑range large‑cabin business jet designed for intercontinental travel, offering about 7,000–7,500 nm of range and generally seating 10–16 passengers in typical layouts (with higher-density configurations possible). The Pilatus PC‑24 is a light jet optimized for versatility and short/rough-field capability, with about 1,800–2,000 nm of range and usually 6–8 passengers in executive seating (more in commuter/utility configurations). The Robinson R66 is a single‑engine turbine helicopter suited to regional point‑to‑point missions, with roughly 300–350 nm of range and seating for 4 passengers plus a pilot (up to 5 seats total). Overall, the G700 leads in range and cabin capacity, the PC‑24 balances jet speed with flexible runway access, the TBM 960 delivers efficient speed for smaller groups, and the R66 trades speed and range for vertical access and landing flexibility.
