I would call that a (bush) commuter service. However, I admit suprise they are being used even for that. Mostly DC-3's seem to be only used for freight services. I think there are a lot of DC-3 still being used as bush planes. Ever seen one on floats? pretty neat.

As I said it seems to depend on your definition of Airline, though these people seem to fairly substantial.

regular passenger service.


There was one that flew in and out of our airport fairly regularly
until just a few years ago. It wasn't a passenger plane, but was used
for hauling freight.
I don't know who was operating it.
