Flag since the 1930s

image by Miles Li, 10 Mar 2015

This is the former flag of Det Danske Luftfartselskabt, one of the predecessors of SAS (Scandinavian Airlines System). In use 1930s - 1940s.

The emblem seems similar to that of Det Norske. Is this coincidence, or was there a shared history as well as a shared future?
Peter Hans van den Muijzenberg, 7 Mar 2015

It depends on how we define coincidence. Many airlines of that era, particularly European ones, used as their logos variants of a flying bird, often inside a circle.

Flag since 1947

On 26 July 1947 the Ministry of State approved a defaced (rectangular) Dannebrog flag (Danish: stutflag med mærke) with a badge in canton. The badge showed a a white seagull exceeding a white circle by his wings. Badge reconstruction is based on former image of Miles Li.
