Because it has the finess of a steamroller. It is rubbish. It defaces the Union Flag. It is Nul Pont to other display kites of other nations. The Rafale of the the AdA is selling the AdA. The other nations don't need to sell their countries flag, they sell their service or their units history. Alas the RAF rules to QRs on schemes are not to have any fun. John Sullivan wanted a design as you know. I was pushing for a design that was RAF based. I got it in the end with the crests. My addition to it was the Union flag. No BA bull s*** . As it is laid flat. Not defaced or as my brother has stated, dragged into a black hole.
