Well its defininetly exciting times. In regards to being rated at LCY i'm sure any aircraft that can and needs to be rated will be. Might even be a condition of the order that Embrear get it rated. Is this not what they did with BA's 170's?
Some good options there roo cat, just can't see SAS or Lufthansa selling their associated carriers as its just allowing competition in. To be honest if they were to merge with Air Berlin they could become a serious force.
