Bad advice.
One cannot purchase an operating certificate. However, one could purchase a company that owns an operating certificate along with the assets. But if you go this route please read the applicable guidance as you could end up having to totally recertify as if you were starting a new certificate. And if you plan on moving the certificate again it is not an easy process.
