Advice on starting a 125 cert.
I am looking for advice from those who have experience starting a 125 cert from scratch. I would like your opinion/advice/tips on resources, a time line, costs, and any other wisdom you have to offer. The aircraft is a 727, thanks!

Let me be critical first then proactive secondly. If you're asking for advice on a messgae board you probably are not the person for the job.
If you're looking for help in this endeavor I would contact GLN Compliance in Denver. I started a couple of 135 certs on my own and 1 with GLN and I am still kicking my self in the arse for all the effort and time ( let alone money ) I could have saved by going to them.
Have you considered purchasing a 125 cert from a struggling operator?
Good Luck and I hope you get it off the ground.
I would do more aircraft analysis unless you are handcuffed to this aircraft for one reason or other.

You are therefore better off to plan to undertake a 121 certification.
Please feel free to PM me with any additional specific questions.

I do agree with you on GLN, they have a great rep. Yes, we are exploring the option of purchasing a 125. The aircraft is paid for and has sentimental meaning to the boss.
