"I do not understand the question, just like doing it in a cessna 172 but a million times easier"

Simply, I asked the question to find out if anyone has done it before. I dont just assume people do, so thats why I asked.

And despite the aircraft being certified for 1 pilot, your still flying over large stretches of water, scarce mountainous terrain with very changeable weather. Single pilot IFR in a 172 is challenging enough, so single pilot IFR while travelling in a jet in inclement weather would be tougher. So I was thinking that depending on the nature of the flight, insurance companies might require particular experience criteria to be met, or a suitably qualifed safety pilot (SIC rating) tag along. Or maybe it might be good airmanship to have a second pair of eyes and hands.

Hence I was hoping to get in touch with someone who has actually flown the route single pilot, to get some more information on it.
