Clarence, The U. S. Flag Code is rather complex.
When hung, the Union is to be to the North or to the East. If hung just for viewing, the Union is to be to the viewer's right. Thus, on the port side (left side) of an aircraft, the Union should be towards the tail, while on the starboard side (right side) of the plane, the Union should be towards the nose of the plane. Even more complicated is the display of the flag on a stage. If there is a speaker or a group of people on the stage, the flag is to be to the speaker's right; if there is no speaker, such as in a movie theater, the flag should be to the audience's right. When displayed with flags of other countries, the U. S. Flag should either be at the center (for an odd number of flags) or to the right of all other flags. When paraded, the U.S. Flag is marched to the right of a unit flag.
