^^^^ What IB said is correct. Codeshare means nothing with regards to scope violation. If XJ would have bought Air Missouri, who flew for United, and transferred assets to Air Missouri, it would have been in violation of Mesaba scope, even if Air Missouri didn't fly for Delta or NWA like Mesaba does. Scope cares nothing about WHO you fly for codewise, what matters is who purchased/started you with their assets.
