Piaggio Avanti Evo vs Pilatus Pc 24 vs Piper M600 Sls vs Sikorsky S 92

The Piaggio Avanti EVO and Pilatus PC-24 are fixed‑wing business aircraft, the Piper M600 SLS is a single‑engine turboprop, and the Sikorsky S‑92 is a medium helicopter. In range, the PC-24 is typically the longest‑legged of the group (roughly around 2,000 nautical miles class, depending on load and reserves), the Avanti EVO is next (about 1,500 nautical miles class), the M600 SLS is similar-to-slightly shorter (about 1,400 nautical miles class), and the S‑92 is generally shorter on practical legs (often under about 500–600 nautical miles, mission dependent). In passenger capacity, the S‑92 carries the most, commonly configured for around 12–19 passengers, making it the clear choice for moving larger groups to sites without runways. The PC-24 and Avanti EVO typically seat about 6–9 passengers in executive layouts, with the PC-24 also offering greater flexibility and rough/short runway capability. The M600 SLS is the smallest, usually 4–6 passengers, prioritizing owner‑pilot simplicity and efficiency over cabin volume.
