Dassault Falcon 2000lxs vs Embraer Phenom 100ev vs Embraer Phenom 300e vs Embraer Praetor 600 vs Pilatus Pc 12 Ngx

The Dassault Falcon 2000LXS is a large-cabin business jet, offering intercontinental-style comfort for typical missions and a range around 4,000 nautical miles, usually seating about 8–10 passengers in a spacious layout. The Embraer Phenom 100EV is an entry-level very light jet, best for shorter regional trips with a range near 1,100–1,200 nautical miles and typically 4–6 passengers. The Embraer Phenom 300E steps up to the light-jet category, combining higher cruise performance with a range around 1,900–2,000 nautical miles and commonly 6–9 passengers depending on configuration. The Embraer Praetor 600 is a super-midsize jet, aimed at longer nonstop city pairs, with a range around 3,600–4,000 nautical miles and typically 8–10 passengers. The Pilatus PC-12 NGX is a single-engine turboprop rather than a jet, valued for short/rough-field flexibility and operating economics; it usually carries 6–9 passengers (often up to 10 in high-density) and has a range roughly 1,600–1,800 nautical miles.
