Imo they'd be better going for routes that are not currently served (or only lightly served) from the central belt such as BGO, SVG, OSL, HAJ, LUX, ZRH, BIO. These are much thinner in terms of pax numbers, but due to the lack of competition or direct alternatives I suspect they'd be better able to command the kind of higher fares such an operation would likely require.
I really hope LOG have done their homework very dilligently on this, as a poor choice of routes could be a real mess.

I strongly agree. EDI-LUX/ZRH could be good routes. Maybe GLA-OSL/DUS (if EW are leaving that route). Can't see any value in them attempting the likes of BRU and CPH given the competition, as you say. Shouldn't be trying to rely on codeshares and connections to hub routes either. It might increase demand, but it will just dilute the yields. Needs to be p2p routes that can generate good O&D demand even with high fares in order to create good margins on these ERJs IMO...

G-SAJB was officially re-registered and transferred to Loganair today, according to G-INFO. It is currently at Inverness awaiting the take over services from the leased BMI a/c, whilst G-SAJC will do Glasgow S2000 routes when it arrives.

Just read this article online. The article states that LM plan to add 4 ex BM jets in the next year and that they will be based at GLA & NWI. So looks like the days of LM operating the day D328 are numbered.

According to a recent interview GLA will be the main source of European destinations from Scotland, slot application dependent two airports in Germany have been applied to and waiting to hear back. Assumptions at the moment at taking over the Dusseldorf route which has been dropped by eurowings and perhaps Hamburg or Hannover could be a good prediction.
As as has been mentioned Brussels and Copenhagen may be a step too far but you never know in the aviation world, I suppose it will depend on the success of jet operations.

A concern with Loganair is that their future jet fleet comprises of aged airframes that have excessive fuel burn per seat. This will become very unhealthy for them soon, once their hedges have run out.
Starting European routes in expectation that Scotland will leave the European Union is also not risk free.

Wouldn't mind the Clan points either!
