Do you think this backpack would be small enought to be used as a carry on? Maybe when its not entirely full?

Yes, I have used this exact same pack as a carry-on, fully loaded, and it fit nicely under the seat of regional jets, 737's and small prop puddle jumpers. I would suggest removing the bungee gear lashes from the daisy chain because one of mine got hung on a seat and broke.

I think you could bring it even when it is full. I have a 32L pack from Black Diamond that fits under a seat.
