Yes, It was flies from FLL/PBI-Paradise Island, Bahamas. I remember which specific routes was took on. It was intra-Florida flight from FLL on seaplanes. I was too assume what happened Chaulks was crashes off Florida coast few years ago.

Chalk's has ceased operation of its obsolete seaplanes, but I believe that they still fly a number of daily flights in the northern Bahamas.

They still may fly again, but it will be tough. Sad, since they use to bill themselves as the oldest continuously flying airline....

"Iraq Air" is indeed flying these days, on a somewhat regular schedule.
Not sure the exact details, but they seem to be operating more like a charter.
They are not listed on any GDS that I'm aware of, and tickets are sold only by contracted TAs in Iraq, Jordan and Turkey.

I can't find any references to them anywhere, other than history... I think they moved "headquarters" to FLL, and had plans to fly to Bimini and perhaps Key West by late last year, but I see no references that they were able to pull it off. No web site listing, although their code OP still exists.
