"北京首都国际机场 (English: Beijing Capital International Airport) is the main 
	international airport serving Beijing. It was opened on March 2, 1958."

It is most likely that the Beijing International Airport 
	Authority evolved into the BCIA.
The flag is a horizontal white 
	flag with the logo (http://logok.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Bcia-logo-and-wordmark.png) in the middle as seen here (first flag from left to right):

The logo in the canton forms the Chinese ideogram 首 - meaning "Capital".
