An aerial view of the British India Steam Navigation Company passenger/cargo liner Dumra (1946) and cargo liners Chantala (1950) and Chakdara (1951) anchored together off Muscat, Oman. The photographer is in an aircraft high above the ships which are seen from off the starboard quarter. The Dumra is the starboard ship and is in white livery. It is not known which is which of the other two ships but the port side vessel has the Union flag painted on either side of her boat deck amidships. Transparencies numbers PCT267 to PCT271 were taken on the same occasion.
