Presidential Flag

It does not have to be considered as "Presidential Flag" since that in the Venezuelan vexillological tradition never existed a piece of this nature: in this case it can be the "Command Pennant" that was gotten to use during 1970 on certain specific circumstances for indicate the presence of the President in some military installations, more likely naval. Between 1970 and 1997, the mentioned Command Pennant was red with the Coat of Arms of Venezuela on the center without additional stars and at the moment, the red color has been replaced by the yellow  maintaining the National CoA on the center. In the case of the Venezuelan Navy, the Presidential Flag on Sea is blue with the National Coat of Arms on the center accompanied by four white stars: one in each canton.

In the image sent by Raul, this flag appear as 2:3. The star are slighty more far from the the corners and slighty greater.
Jaume Olle', 17 November 2002

According to Album 2000 Corr 3 [pay03] - President of the Republic (2:3) - Blue flag with the coat of arms in the middle and four white five-pointed stars, one in each corner. This is the flag used in the Navy (on ships) to indicate presence of
the President on a naval ship. It was apparently introduced only in 1997. Before that it seems that there was no flag specifically prescribed for that purpose, at last I am not aware (or was it the square national with four stars "Command Banderoles" used on the naval ships, as suggested by Armand?).
