Flags on the popes plane.

[Scott L]

Was watching the popes departure this morning and was wondering how they raise and the lower the flags on top of the aircraft (ie is there a window?).
Have seen the flags attached above side windows but not on top.

The flags are displayed from the flight deck escape hatch (refer image)
