Just found this for people interested in:
http://blog.museeinformatique.fr/index. ... numero=145


Short translation:
A very good place to see and/or photograph the aircraft should be on the "Grande Arche" (at La Défense) at the Museum of Informatics.
The flypast began just before the Grande Arche with aircraft passing just overhead.
The opening flypast will begin at 1045 hrs and the closure one at 1145 hrs.

For info, the prices are 7,50€ by adult, 6€ by children and free for children under 6, minus 1,50€ by printing the pdf file.

Last year the fighters operated out of Evreux and the Aeronavale helo's from Le Bourget and the ALAT from Cergy-Pontoise. Also Villacoublay and Orleans were used.
Practise for the flypast is usually a week before and at Chateaudun.
If I have more info, times etc. i will post it here.

Regards,
DJ
Anyone for the exact location of Cergy-Pontoise?
Are the ALAT heli's visible from outside?

If Cergy-Pontoise is confirmed for the ALAT helos, should be Pontoise-Cormeilles en Vexin airport (ICAO: LFPT), which is 35km north-west of Paris and 7km north-west of Cergy-Pontoise.

Hi,

Strange that you don't saw some Mirages. I noted yesterday a whole bunch of Mirage 2000's in Evreux. I supposed they were all here for the flypast. Also some Gripens were parked in Evreux. Hopefully somebody read them.

Cheers,
Eric
