Is it allowed, when playing Castellan Creed, you assign the Scout rule to an Vendetta?
Since the new rules for flyers, Valkyries and Vendetta's have been downgraded by losing the scout rule. With this special rule of Creed, you can at least have one Vendetta (or squadron) with this rule.
Within our gaming group there is a bit of discussion going on, if this is allowed.
What do you people think?

When did they lose their Scout rule? Am I missing something in the FAQ?

Yes, the Flyers lost Scout in the most recent FAQ. All Flyers lost all special Deployment Rules they had (I think it was just Scout and/or Deep Strike).
As far as I can tell, there's nothing in the RAW that prohibits this, but the removal of all those Rules from all Flyers suggests that it's against the RAI, and GW just didn't think about the possibility when writing the FAQ. Note also that the previous version of the FAQ said that the Scout Special Rule did nothing for the Valkyrie/Vendetta.

No, it was in each of the individual Army Book FAQs. So the IG one changed the Valkyrie and Vendetta, the BA one changed the Storm Raven, etc.

They got rid of it when they added the errata that removed scout, as there was no longer any need for it... or so they thought Here's the link, the magenta on page three is where scout and deepstrike were removed.
