Mokulele livery on E-170s

Just saw pictures on a.net of the new E-170s...

Have they always had the Kapalua logo on the tail? What's the relationship between the 2? Is this on all tails for mokulele? I like the livery a lot, just curious!

Yes, the Kapalua logo has always been on the tail but I'm not sure about the relationship between the two. This is the standard Mokulele livery that's been in existence since they started Hawaii service. I'm not a big fan though. Something weird about a red livery thoughout seems rather bland.

Thanks for sharing me these photos from a.net. I think its looks fabulous photos with brand new airlines in Hawaii. That's why I didn't realize know that before. Is that AQ has been already cease operations by earlier April 2008. It was costly due to high cost of the fuel. That's why AQ has been shutdown immediately. I'm sure if I will expected to see brand new airlines in Hawaii anytime soon.

IMHO, it was a lot more than just the high cost of fuel...

Poor management, anti-competitive practices going both ways, and unfair competition. At least Mokulele filled 50% of its ranks with former AQ employees.
