SKW getting 100 MRJs?
Can they still be a DCI operator with 100 MRJs and the newer scope clause? Apparently they are thinking of ordering 100 Mitsubishi RJs for delivery between 2017 and 2020.
I see here that plane sits 70-90, so up to 76 seats would be allowed up to the limit of 223 total.

I'd LOVE to see the FFD welfare plug pulled on that operation and force them to compete (and lose badly) on real airline flying rather than leaching off of the scope clauses of other pilot groups and other brands.

If not, the company will squeal how they can't make them abide by a contract they (SKYW) never agreed to and it would cost trillions of dollars and liquidate DAL if we enforced it so we'd grant relief anyway.

The next Indy Air. I think they should try it.

We just need to add Skywest/ExpressJet and Compass/GoJet names to the bottom of 1.D.2.
Now you don't have an issue with that 1.D.2 exception, right?
