[Grovenet] That's one big flag

I was driving east yesterday, coming around that curve past the Safeway area, and the flag just about filled my windshield.  Seeing it for the first time, surprised too, I was very impressed.  It was simply beautiful and majestic.  My thanks to those involved.

No only is it big, it's also quite breath-taking and beautiful.  The News Times article yesterday stated the flag being flown yesterday was a test as they're waiting to fly the flag continuously until ~May 28th for both the pole concrete base to cure and the lights for nighttime illumination to be installed.
 
Out of a scientific curiosity, I'm wondering how long it'll take for the flag to become tattered enough by winds to require replacement.
