Well they could always fly them at mainline. But for us to fly them yes, scope needs to be adjusted as I understand it. If the new TA has no changes to current 76 seat scope ( I think they wanted to accelerate retirement of 50 seaters for new 76 seaters, 2 for 1 or so), then there isnt a way for us to get more DL planes until that does change, or they come from another regional carrier.
