Scottish reveries
The reference to Pedro de Ayala's theory on the Scottish origin of the cross of Burgundy is interesting but lacks evidence. What we know FOR SURE is that the Parisian supporters of John the Fearless early in the 15th century used a Parisian parish dedicated to Saint Andrew as their rallying point, that their badges were a green hood and a plain Saint Andrew's cross with a fleur-de-lys, and that Burgundy is under the patronage of Saint Andrew. John the Fearless's own personal badge was a carpenter plane, to make derisory fun of a rival whose badge was a raguly pal. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.8.98.118 (talk) 11:42, 2 September 2013 (UTC)

Evolution from the plain saltire to the raguly and flaming saltire in 15th-century Burgundy

 * "http://base-devise.edel.univ-poitiers.fr/index.php?id=1577" & "http://base-devise.edel.univ-poitiers.fr/index.php?id=1682"_Explanations: 1)The houses of Armagnac-Orléans and Burgundy were rival. The former's badge was a bend, sash or knotty club(bande). John the Fearless, duke or Burgundy, adopted as personal badge a carpenter's plane (rabot)("http://base-devise.edel.univ-poitiers.fr/index.php?id=1500"). A planed-down plank (planche rabotée) mockingly defiled the Orléans. 2)The Burgundian badge of the firesteel (fusil) with flint and sparks (Order of the Golden Fleece). 3)The symbolic motif of the knotty forest (bois écôté, bois noeaux) displayed by Philip III of Burgundy, John's heir, in the 1430s. 4)Scholarly explanation: the flammability of laurel branches according to the Roman author Pliny the Elder.

Richard Fleischer's Film "The Vikings" (1958)?
Starring Kirk Douglas, Tony Curtis, etc. Rather surprisingly, the Saxon warriors in chain-mail garrisoning the coastal castle stormed by the Vikings are carrying white shields seemingly bearing an anachronistic cross of Burgundy with sparks and Burgundian firesteels. There's an explanation, I think: the location is Fort LaLatte in Brittany. Reused materiel from another movie, most likely.

Cross as Spanish Fin Flash
I think there's an error in the "examples of use\in spain". It refers to the cross of Burgundy being "The current fin flash on all the aircraft from the Spanish Armed Forces except the ones in the Navy, is a simplified monochrome version of the Cross of Burgundy", with an accompanying photo and reference to the spanish air force website. But I think this may be wrong in two ways:
 * 1) The the archived reference says that the fin flash is intended to represent the cross of saint andrew, not a simplified version of the cross of Burgundy;
 * 2) As far as I can see, regardless of what cross it is meant to represent, it seems that the black-and-white fin flash is present on all spanish non-navy aircraft, and possibly never present on Spanish Navy aircraft. Perhaps the cross of saint andrew is the fin flag of all spanish aircraft, except for ones in the navy where there is no fin flash.

I'm new to wikipedia editing, and I'm a little apprehensive deleting this passage. I'll leave it to people who are more familiar with this article.

Thanks! :)
