Dassault Falcon 2000lxs vs Dassault Falcon 2000s vs Dassault Falcon 6x vs Dassault Falcon 7x vs Embraer Phenom 100ev vs Embraer Phenom 300e vs Embraer Praetor 500 vs Embraer Praetor 600
The Dassault Falcon 2000S and 2000LXS are super‑midsize jets; both typically seat about 8–10 passengers, with the 2000LXS offering slightly more capability. Their ranges are broadly in the roughly 3,300–4,000 nautical mile class, with the 2000LXS generally at the upper end of the pair. The Falcon 7X and Falcon 6X step up into the large‑cabin category: both commonly accommodate about 12–16 passengers. The 7X is a long‑range tri‑jet around the ~5,900 nm class, while the newer 6X is also long‑range at roughly ~5,500 nm, emphasizing a very large cross‑section cabin. Embraer’s Phenom 100EV is a very light jet, usually 4–6 passengers, with range around ~1,100–1,200 nm. The Phenom 300E is a light jet, typically 6–9 passengers, with range around ~2,000–2,200 nm. The Praetor 500 and 600 are super‑midsize jets: the 500 usually seats ~8–9 with ~3,300 nm range, and the 600 seats ~8–12 with ~4,000 nm range.
