### What do you see as an issue? # Description Currently, the official Airflow Docker image explicitly sets the environment variable `AIRFLOW__CORE__LOAD_EXAMPLES` to `false` by default ([reference](https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/0d07c70ae3a67b0fb7d9490a972eb06c2a9f1bcc/Dockerfile#L2052)). While the [Configuration Reference](https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow/3.1.6/configurations-ref.html#load-examples) ([Code](https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/airflow-core/src/airflow/config_templates/config.yml#L173-L177)) mentions that the default value for `load_examples` is `True`, it doesn't mention that this is overridden in the official image. This can be confusing for users who expect example DAGs to be present when they first run the official image but find them missing. **Proposed Change** I suggest adding a note to the `load_examples` section in the documentation to inform users about this behavior in the official image. **Suggested addition to the docs:** > Note: If you are using the Official Airflow Docker Image, this value is set to `False` by default via the environment variable `AIRFLOW__CORE__LOAD_EXAMPLES`. To enable example DAGs when using the official image, you must explicitly set `AIRFLOW__CORE__LOAD_EXAMPLES=True` in your environment. ### Solving the problem _No response_ ### Anything else _No response_ ### Are you willing to submit PR? - [x] Yes I am willing to submit a PR! ### Code of Conduct - [x] I agree to follow this project's [Code of Conduct](https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
