Thanks a bunch for confirming most of the answers!

I thought that, "To an aircraft, a red flag on top of ATC building means nothing, and if this question was asked like 'A red flag on top of ATC building means flying in progress'.
Is the answer 'flying in progress' if this question is asked as 'To a pilot, a red flag means..'?

Somebody kindly confirm the correct answer to Q. No. 22
