Any particular reason why you've not included a Celestron 9.25 or 11" in that list?

They are proven planetary scopes and very capable of producing fine deep sky images.

The Celestron OTAs in that aperture are also comparatively light, at around 10kgs.

I know the 9.25 doesn't seem like a big step up from an 8", but I noticed the difference when I went up from an 8" Skywatcher newtonian.

The 11" would certainly be a fair step up in aperture.
