Hello. Could you guys tell me what the top and bottom flags represent in this photo? Thanks
Top is the DLV ( Deutscher Luftsportverband) flag - the bottom is hard to tell as picture is in black and white but its probably the Black/White/Red flag which represents Germany.

I agree with Horst. The bottom flag is most likely an imperial german tricolour and the top is a DLV flag.
Thanks for the info!!!!!!! I wonder what the man on the left is doing?
He's using a pole mounted anemometer to measure the wind speed, the flags are showing the winds direction. Both are essential information when one takes to the hills to go a-gliding......by yarmouth
