I agree with this. I flew single pilot freight in a twin and I think that was more to handle than a jet. At least with a jet you can usually climb thru it pretty quick or request to. Some twins you have to try to climb or descend and hope you find warmer air.

The pilot's certificate was issued January 21, 2015. That does not mean it was his initial issue; it was his latest issue. He may have received his initial issue ten or fifteen years ago. The issue date shown on the FAA records reflects as issued with the latest application. If that's when he added the type rating, that's when it was issued...he may have been a pilot much longer.
The decedent had a private pilot certificate, with single engine land and multi engine land ratings, and an instrument airplane rating. He was also rated for rotorcraft, helicopter. He held a type rating P/CE-510S. His third class medical was issued in October of 2015.
My pilot certificate reflects a fairly recent issue, though I received it several decades ago. Going by the date of issue only tells you when the most recent application for a certificate, rating or privilege was made that amended the certificate; it's when it was most recently reissued. It does not speak to the experience level of the pilot. A 26,000 hour pilot with a new type rating a month ago shows an issue date one month ago, even though he's been flying a tad longer.
Books are best not read by their covers any more than wild speculation has a place in aviation.

To add to what Burke said, you will also get a new "issuance date" simply by paying your $2 online and requesting a new one if yours becomes lost/stolen/illlegible/address change/sex change etc

That jet is a lot of airplane for ANYBODY flying single pilot IFR.
