Of course, the production of carflags with a vacuum feet, that clings to aluminium or plastic car bodys, is also possible.
But vacuum feets hold a downside. They cling close to the car body for some time and then drop down abruptly.
For example: You drive on the freeway and the carflags stay savely in place. A few minutes later your drive through the city and a slight turn removes the carflag from the car. You certainly know that phenomenon from towel-rails in the bath. They cling and cling and cling, but suddenly they loose theire grip.
Therefore carflags provided with a vacuum feet are NOT qualified for road traffic.

The president of the biggest Luxembourg parliament faction CSV (Chreschtlech Sozial Vollekspartei) Michel Wolter, informed the press about his intention to introduce a petition to the parliament, which suggests the replacement of the current Luxembourg ensign. The current ensign shows three horizontally stripes, just like the German ensign. But instead of black-red-gold, the Luxembourg colours are red-white-blue. This flag was established in 1972 and modified in 1993. At that time the usuall dark blue was replaced by the light blue Pantone 299C. The "Tricolore" was often accused of mistaking with the Netherlands ensign. Therefore many Luxembourger still prefer the "roude Léiw" (red lion). This flag shows a red lion on a blue-white field. The "roude Léiw" reffers to the 13th Century an was originally the family crest of the nobility of Luxembourg.
The suggestion made by Michel Wolter, to replace the "Tricolore" with the "roude Léiw", faces big support from the population, quite contrary to the parliament. According to a recent survey enforced by the radio station "RTL Radio Luxembourg", over 90% of the respondents agree with Michel Wolters suggestion. The chairpersons of all other parliament factions showed few appreciation for Michel Wolters advance. The only exception is Gast Gyberien chairperson of the ADR (Alternativ Demokratesch Reformpartei).

Should the ensign be replaced, we certainly assimilate the new motive to our assortment.
Stuttgart/Winterbach (csc): The boom of black-red-golden car flags is probably on of the big surprises of this soccer worldcup. There are few cars without weaving flags these days. The purchase of these little plastic flags has become more and more exhausting for the soccer fans. In the meantime, soccer fans assembly and fasten everything that might looks like a flag on theire cars. The answer to this problem ist easy and the flag shortage all over Germany is no problem for www.auto-fahnen.net and www.car-flags.eu.
"We usually provide diplomate coaches with our first class flags and are supplyer for ambassadors and other important people all over the world." says Matthias Jaekle, general manager of auto-fahnen.net. "Therefore, we dispatch our german national flags including flag poles on the same day as the arrival of the order. Of course, also during the time of the soccer worldcup." Reliabilty and top quality are the main topics for Matthias Jaekle.
Jaekle´s premium german national flags are provided with flag poles made of stainless steel and communicate a special driving and fan experience.
While plastic flags and kludges often can´t stand paces over 60km/h, the first-class diplomate flags stay put at paces up to 100km/h, according to the strong magnet, which holds the flags in place.
Further more, Matthias Jaekle pointed out, that not just german national flags were available on time, to celebrate the remaining soccer worldcup matches.
Today the TÜV Süd (the german Technical Inspection Agency) tested our car flags at a pace of 200km/h on the freeway.
Of course, they stood put just as we expected them to be.
Even so, you must not drive faster than 100km/h with our car flags! Airstream is a turbulent current, which can be clearly higher than usual, for short time.
Due to the fact, that the flag pole should not get disengaged at any time, it is necessary to consider these security, as well as for perfect mounted flag poles.
By the way: The doubling of the driving speed means the quadruplication of the wind load and this increases the risk of delamination of the flag pole.
Please note that, the disposal of our car flags at pace over 100km/h displays an incorrect utilization of our car flags and we deny all liabilities.
Right now, I would like to ask you to read the security advices, which are enclosed to every car flag we deliver, again carefully and to obey them.
On 7th of March 2006 the Venezuelan parliament decided a change of the emblem on the Venezuelan national flag. This change became effective on 12th of March 2006 - the official day of the flag (DÃa de la Bandera).
The following changes had been conducted:
In the left upper corner of the emblem the number of cereal spikes, which symbolize the current number of Venezuelan federal states, was increased from 20 up to 24. In the right upper corner of the emblem in addition to the wappons, which symbolize the liberty combat, an arrow and a bow as well as a machete have been added. This change honors the involvement of the indigenous populace and the African slaves during the liberty combat.
The horse, positioned in the blue field below, changed it´s direction of gallop from right to left.
Furthermore, an eight star was added to the flag.
The seven white stars on the blue band stand for the seven provinces, which carried the liberty. The in 2006 added eight star reffers to a decree of Simón BolÃvars from 1817, that says through impelmentation of an eight star, the liberty of Guayana should be honored as well.
For the first time, in order to the inauguration of the new ambassador of Belize in Germany, our car flags have been used for an official purpose.
Thanks to honorary consul W. Kahles for the trust in our products and the nice field reports.
