Taken ca 1966, this Chileka scene is typical for the mid-1960s with the EAAC Comet freshly painted in the new colour scheme introduced in 1965. In the background is a Central African Airways Viscount with Air Malawi stairs in front. CAA had become an operating company for Air Malawi, Air Rhodesia, and Zambia Airways with each airline's titles applied depending on the flight. Photographer unknown
