Dassault Falcon 8x vs Leonardo Aw189 vs Pilatus Pc 24 vs Sikorsky S 92

The Dassault Falcon 8X and Pilatus PC-24 are fixed‑wing business jets, while the Leonardo AW189 and Sikorsky S‑92 are twin‑engine helicopters aimed at offshore, SAR, and utility/VIP missions. In range, the Falcon 8X is the clear leader, typically around 6,450 nautical miles, enabling true intercontinental nonstop flights. The PC‑24 is a “super versatile jet” with a much shorter but still long business‑aviation range, roughly about 2,000 nautical miles depending on payload and conditions. Helicopter ranges are lower: the AW189 is generally in the ~450–500 nautical mile class, and the larger S‑92 is often around ~500 nautical miles (mission equipment and reserves can materially change both). Passenger capacity also separates them: the Falcon 8X commonly seats about 12–14 in executive layout, while the PC‑24 typically carries about 6–10 in a standard business configuration (it can be arranged for more in commuter/medevac roles). The AW189 is usually configured for about 16–19 passengers, and the S‑92 for roughly 19 passengers, with higher-density seating possible for utility missions.
