Does anyone find this excessive?

I think the ground is excessive. Why 5.6 hours for IFR pilots (as opposed
to
some more even number)?

Even an IFR pilot needs to learn the new avionics. The biggest factor being
they ain't "steam gauges" in there.

Imagine, too, the IFR pilot that is not "computer savvy".

While their hourly rate seems high, the number of hours doesn't.

Lastly, how many threads here have tried to contrast the difference in
flying "style" between highly TRAINED professional and their amature GA
counterparts.

Anyway, the whole thing tends to be insurance
driven, so reasonable has nothing to do with it.

The biggest part of Citation training is learning the avionics, particualrly
the FMS/EFIS systems.
