And, yes, there are plenty of workarounds for the dreaded swastika flag, ranging from having the flag folded to just turning the swastika into a cross or leaving the central white roundel of the the Nazi flag blank.

I hadn't thought of that... interesting! Yes many flags have changed so historically accurate would be key IMHO. I was just looking up what the Canadian flag looked like at the time. Very different than the maple leaf that we have now.

[SPAD-1949]

Another wish urges up for later ....
To have a switch to FMB button out of the Single missions Mode to change settings and a text editor window editing mis file from the inside (pushing waypoints out of the borders or so)

WW2-era RCAF flag. 1st use of the "maple leaf roundel" that I know of:

WW2-era Canadian Flag:

Changing from this flag to the Maple Leaf caused a big stink at the time, if you can believe it. (IMO, the new flag is much more distinctive and attractive.)

Those are both interesting from a history point of view but thank goodness for the new one
