With the proposed OpenSkies config being just 82 seats, won't it fall into a similar category as the BA CityFlyer RJ 100s when it comes to operating outside of the Scope agreement if you have less than 100 seats?
No. Scope uses the number of seats an aircraft is certified for, not the number actually fitted. The RJ100s are a specific listed exception to the Scope agreement and they must all be replaced by sub-100 seat aircraft when the leases begin to expire in 2010.
