Been waiting a while to get the follow up done. Seems weather and time had been an issue. I promised a follow up video to where a new 150 foot tall flag pole was installed at my work place with the flag flying high. I finally got the chance to get it done. I did shoot this with my new Mavic Air 2 though in 1080p with a 64 ND filter. Hope you enjoy it.

Nice flying and nice to see someone proud of a large flagpole installation.  If the pole is 150 feet, how large is that flag?

You're welcome.  That's a big flag.
I've been flying a flag almost continuously for over 30 years at home.  I put up a 25 foot flagpole as part of a major front yard landscaping project about 12 years ago.  Other than high winds or rain, there are always two or three flags flying.  I have used my flagpole for various test photos and videos from my Mini.

That's pretty cool for sure!!

As a former military member, I suggest that some of you guys read up on flag etiquette. I see an increasing number of violations these days including some described in these posts. Don't pretend to be patriotic and abuse the flag at the same time. Rant over, carry on.

I don't think anyone in this particular post is abusing the flag personally and if it gives that appearance, I do apologize.

Two instances so far. If you don't know that, then you do not know the code.

I don’t claim to be an expert nor was I in the military, but as I understand it, this flag doesn’t break any code:

I asked Gary in a direct message several days ago what were the issues, but he has not answered.  I would like to think that I know the flag code pretty well, and have not seen any issues.  What are your issues?

BTW, Gary, thank you for your military service.  I was never in the military, but both my parents served in WW2 and my dad in Korea, and in high school I was trying to get an appointment to the USNA - until my eyes got bad enough that I would fail the physical.

Beautifully recorded. The size of the flagpole is really large which makes it more attractive.

Check Beonhome for some beautiful options of residential flagpoles. I was planning to buy one and found this website useful.
