The results of U-filter flare monitoring of the binary flare star FL Vir = Wolf 424 is presented. 57 flares with energies between 2 × 1028 and 2 × 1031erg were recorded in 20 h of observation. The properties of flare occurrence and flare time-scales are analysed, and the flare activity level in 1980 April is determined to be Lf(U) = 8.0 × 1026ergs-1. This is larger than previously published results and may indicate a variation in the flare activity level on a time-scale of years. An analysis of existing data indicates that the flare activity level correlates with the relative orbital positions of the stars.
