CHARGEURS S.A.

The sources differ over the number of stars visible on the funnel band: two, three, or partly visible outer stars. This suggests five around the full band, as one source explicitly states, although Jordan merely describes a row. A black-and-white photograph of Kergulen shows three. Griffin gives a narrow black funnel top; a Brazilian livery illustration uses brown, possibly representing dark yellow or buff. The five stars are said to represent the five continents.

A later flag adds a red oblong at the hoist. Brown places it upright, whereas the Nüsse flag has it slanting slightly per bend sinister. The change may relate to the 1988 company name, but the earlier version continued to be quoted.

C832 is sourced to Mitchell’s collection; no separate written description or date of adoption is supplied.
