With that mission I’d honestly be looking at a fractional, its just not that much flying and fractional will provide you with another aircraft if the first one goes tech, no headaches finding and training crew, or having to deal with maintenance issues.

If you MUST own and do not want to charter.

An XLS+ or a sovereign may be a good shout unless your previous XLS wasn’t right for a reason?

Otherwise I was think Challenger 300 too, reliable, can complete all those missions comfortably so long as you don’t have lots and lots of bags. Quite a bit more expensive than an XLS to run though.

Id be looking at a Legacy 650, it has heaps of room, very reliable with a sensible maintenance programme and a huge hold.
