About the flag

After Brown’s Flags and Funnels, 1995 [lgr95], Portline - Transportes Maritimos Inter-Nacionais S.A., Lisbon - white flag; in center horizontal, partly wavy stripes of green and red, separated by a thin black stripe; in topfly black "Portline".

This logo, with a narrow green stripe over a wider red one is the common national flag based motive for a number of logos of portuguese state-owned transport companies in the late 1970ies: At least Portmar, Portline and TAP, the later in use till early this year. It is interesting that the most distinctive part of this pattern, the narrower-ness of the green stripe, was ignored by J. L. Loughran [lgr95]. The shade of green is dark, not light, as expected considering that this pattern is inspired in the portuguese national flag.
