My thought was more that the timing on it wouldn't work. By the time the signal is given and another official processes it, the flag is going to be so late that nobody will feel good about it including the crew. It was just a thought based on the exact situation of signaling a wing on a TD that you mentioned. I was just curious if it was a tool that was out there that I'd never heard about.
