State owned airline company.
António Martins, 13 Jan 2005
The company was first named Transportes
Aéreos Portugueses (something like "portuguese air transport"),
abbreviated TAP. In 1981, along with a redesign of logo
and livery, the name was change to "TAP - Air Portugal". In March 2005,
a new visual identy redesign brought yet a new name:
"TAP Portugal".

The company flag, (which I had never saw before, though the logo has been
quite conspicuous in Portugal) shows the logo in white on
red with a narrow (~1/4) stripe along the top of the flag.
António Martins, 13 Jan 2005
The lettering is below the logo;
both are set to the hoist.

This logo, adopted in the early 1980’ies, is
itself inspired by the national flag
— something smaller green and something red bigger.
This pattern also in the airliner livery (on line
example 1
and example 2).
