Aloha sleeping with Air Palau?

[ShortsDriver]

Just read in Pacific magazine that Aloha will be providing pilot, mechanic, ramp, and other staffing services for the new Palau airline upstart Rock Island Air. They plan on having one 737 on line by mid 2003, and one more before year end. Any one know if Aloha will do the training as well, and if so where at? Wading in the IA pool, so the more movement at Aloha the better for me.

Here's what the Pacific mag article said

Q: What is the nature of Aloha’s relationship with Palau Rock Island Air?

A: (Zander) We have signed a Letter of Intent to provide management services. This could lead to Aloha’s assisting them with identifying the best aircraft for their routes, and locating pilots and flight attendants for them to hire. This may also include some training, of flight attendants for example, and some help with setting up systems, for revenue accounting, for example. I do not foresee Aloha actually providing them with staff.
