Daher Tbm 960 vs Piaggio Avanti Evo vs Pilatus Pc 12 Ngx

The Daher TBM 960, Piaggio Avanti EVO, and Pilatus PC-12 NGX are all single‑pilot-capable, pressurized turboprops, but they fit different missions. The TBM 960 is a high‑performance, owner‑flown “personal transport” turboprop: it is typically the smallest in cabin volume and is oriented toward fast, efficient trips with about 4–6 passengers in comfort (up to around 6 passengers plus pilot depending on interior). Its range is generally around the 1,400–1,700 nm class, depending on load and reserves. The Piaggio Avanti EVO is a distinctive twin‑turboprop in the light business aircraft category, offering a more “business cabin” feel and usually seating about 6–7 passengers plus pilot(s). Its range is broadly similar to the TBM’s, often in the roughly 1,300–1,700 nm band, with performance and payload depending on configuration. The Pilatus PC‑12 NGX is a rugged, utility‑oriented single‑engine turboprop with the most flexible cabin; it commonly carries 6–9 passengers (and can be configured for more seats, cargo, or air ambulance). Its range is typically in the same general bracket, often around 1,500–1,800 nm, while prioritizing payload and versatility.
