There should be a thin white fimbriation outside the outermost red circle

Changes in the roundel of the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) certainly affected their Organisational (or what I now call Service) Flag. The former (and current) RSAF Service Flags are now displayed in the RSAF Museum and the image can be viewed at their website. The roundel was a tricolour 1968-1973, a ying-yang 1973-1990 and the current lion-head since 1990.

I recently went to Singapore (...) where I obtained a booklet which had on one page all the flags of the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF). The Air Force Flag has a red canton of crescent and stars but the background is airforce blue with the current logo of the lion's head.

The flag described by Tom Koh is the organisational flag of the Air Force. It is displayed at the Air Force camps.

I drew the Singapore Air Force Ensign image above. There should be a thin white fimbriation outside the outermost red circle. This is shown in this scan from a Singapore Armed Forces booklet.

This flag is the State Colour of the Air Force, which is only displayed at Ceremonial Events such as on National Day Parade held on 9th August, on visits by Heads of Governments or States or at the President's inspection. It is based on the National Flag with the Air Force badge on the lower fly.

Fachinger 1974 mentions an old Singapore air force ensign using a red-white-red roundel in the fly. I believe there was another type of roundel between this and the current one, but I am not sure if this was used on the air force ensign as well.
