Flag is decided by your IP adress. So most likely one day your IP is showing as from Latvia and the other day your IP changes and it shows as from Austria

If you let players choose their flag, it will be abused and trolled 100% no question, this will lead to an abundance of confusion and trolling, abuse of system for fun or just to be plain annoying.
So it is a perfectly logical mechanic, do you know what engines/propulsion the planes use?

No actually it is a Dirtymatter Propulsion System otherwise known as DPS that you often hear people talking about.
