Introduction
Interflug (shortened form of Internationaler Flug, international
flight) was founded in 1958 as a second East German airline to operate
charter flights, while the Deutsche Lufthansa GmbH
der DDR kept operating the regular flights.
Legal litigation started in Bern in 1962 between
East and West Germany over the trade mark Lufthansa. The court gave this
name to the Federal Republic of Germany which implied
that the East German airline had to change its name. This is how Interflug
assumed also the regular flights and the East German
Lufthansa ceased to exist.

Flag adopted c.1958, abandoned late 1970's
Interflug used a flag with the same design as the fin flash of its airplanes.

By the end of the seventies it only flew the red logo on a white field.

Interflug airline. See two pages on FOTW-ws, the first one concerning
East
German Lufthansa and the second, Interflug itself. End of (second)
page, Jens writes “end of the seventies it only flew the red logo on a
white field” but apparently the reverse colour scheme was used, too – to
be honest I have no idea when exactly.
See this image; red field, white logo i.e. stylized aircraft flying
to the left within an oval. Three metal grommets.
Source: German eBay offer no. 260119163152 (end 27 May 2007) put up
by “graveroad” who adds that this item came from Leipzig airport.
Dimensions given as 115 cm x 177 cm.
This is an Interflug fan
site (in German – very thorough): Have a look at Interflug
pennants (including IF that is to say, the agricultural branch).
