Aus ATR + Rishworths

Just wondering if anyone know who Rishworths are trying to contract ATR engineers for in Australia.
See they are also contracted to find A330 pilots for I presume VB.
Toll and Flightline are the only ATR operators I know of but wouldn't think it would be for either of them as they have thier own guys.

A chap at work has resigned

to take up a position in Oz on the ATR for a startup. Based in Townsville or Cairns, flying into PNG IIRC.

If I was a betting man I'd put my money on Hevilift for this one

Hmm, that's probably not gonna happen. VB management officially don't like Rishworths ( they used to supply pilots to Pac Bro, but that all ended in tears), and apart from some management pilots and possibly C&T pilots, all pilots are to be recruited internally for the A330. My guess would be that the Reverend are singing hymns for Strategic or possibly an Asian carrier for Australian bases.
