Roland,
Range is how far an aircraft can fly from A to B, including diversionary airfields. Depending on load factors or ferry range etc.

Endurance is how long the aircraft can stay airborne before the pilot is thinking about a change of trousers. Typically it includes loiter time like the whores outside Bradford train station.
