QantasLink to replace Q200/Q300s with mid-life Q400s

Skytrans and Qantas are unrelated. Skytrans were the only other Australian airline with expertise in running the equipment that’s needed to service LDH economically so Qantas saw an effective way of exiting the operation while providing continuation of service to the island.

So, Qantas is getting rid of its Q200s and Q300s but still requires Q200s to service LDH; however, it intends to contract Skytrans to provide the Q200s? Will this be in Skytrans's livery?

Their strategy is to acquire a larger, younger, and more economical fleet of Q400s.

Do we know the commercial arrangement between Skytans and Qantas? Is Skytrans a subsidiary of Qantas, or does it have some control and influence over its operations?
