The pole hem slides over an indoor or parade pole, and the gold rayon fringe is the traditional ceremonial finish. For an outdoor flagpole, see the grommets version. Choose from 3×4 FT, 3×5 FT, 4×6 FT.

The United States Air Force became an independent service on September 18, 1947, and its flag was approved by President Truman on March 26, 1951. The design places the Air Force coat of arms on an ultramarine blue field: an American bald eagle over a cloud formation and a shield with a thunderbolt, encircled by thirteen white stars for the original colonies, with the words United States Air Force in a scroll beneath. The Air Force publishes its heritage and history online.

A US Air Force flag with fringe is the indoor and parade version. Outdoor flags on base poles are unfringed.

Is this flag for indoor or outdoor use?

Indoor and ceremonial. The lined pole hem slides over an indoor or parade pole and the rayon fringe is a ceremonial finish; it is not made to fly outdoors, where weather wears the fringe quickly.

What other finishes is the U.S. Air Force flag made in?

This flag is also made with grommets and pole hem. The design is the same; the finish changes how it mounts and where it is displayed.

Is this flag made in the USA?

Yes. This flag is made in the USA.

How is this flag displayed with the American flag?

The American flag takes the position of honor. On separate poles of the same height it flies on its own right, which is the viewer’s left; on one halyard it flies at the peak with the U.S. Air Force flag below it. Service flags are arranged in the armed forces order of precedence. See our flag order of precedence guide.

Can I order several for a unit, command or organization?
