Type rating?
Right up there with the LearJet, huh!

Sorry mate. Smart *rse Dr got the better of me just then.
You don't need a type rating or even an endorsement - just a check ride.
Never flown a Cirrus, so I am a PPruNe expert. Much of the G1000 can be learnt outside the aeroplane. 6 hour check ride seems excessive - but I guess its their Cirrus ...... if you want to fly it ........
