Image above is the putative perhaps existing flag, in the same
pattern of the known ones: white background, shield 2/3 of the
flag's height.

I recently researched municipal flags in Greenland by
correspondence with municipal authorities in Greenland. The
results have just been published in the Fall 2005 issue of
Nordisk Flaggkontakt, the journal of the Nordic Flag Society [joe05].
I managed to get confirmation from 15 of 18 municipalities all
using the same flag model - the coat of arms on a white field
(the colour white carries no symbolism). Qeqertarsuaq is
one of them. This municipality told me they fly the flag
on 21 June (Greenland's national day) and on other Greenland flag
flying days, when the municipal council is in session, when
receiving official guests and on the birthday of the honorary
citizen of the municipality.

Aachen's 1982 book [ach82], as
quoted in <www.ngw.nl>,
says that the arms were granted in 1973. The armorial charges are
a whale and aurora borealis (northern lights).
