Pilot flag, 1894-1926 - Image by Željko Heimer, 6 August 2001

The pilot flag adopted in 1894 and abandoned in 1926 was horizontally divided yellow-red-yellow-red-yellow (1:1:2:1:1) with a white border all around.
The flag is shown in National Geographic (1917) [gmc17] and Webster's New International Dictionary (1924) [w6h24]. Calvo & Grávalos (1983) [g2c83] caption the flag "Harbours' pilot ensign, 1923-1931. Civil ensign with a white border".

A very similar pilot flag was adopted in 1931, displaying the Republican civl ensign (red-yellow-purple). Pilot flags were abolished after the Civil War and were never readopted.
The flag is shown on a cigarette card from the collection Die grosse Flaggenparade der Welt im Olympia (Monopol, Dresden, 1936) [d9e36b].
