The best place to see/enjoy the aircraft is place du invalides near the bridge over de Seine. Easily reach by Metroline 13. After the flypast some helicopters will land here.

(I hope this link works here)
On 14th July each service runs a PR event, the Armée de 'Air et de l'Espace one is in the parc André Citroën and they advertise the presence of a Fennec and a Puma, (which is a step up from last year when they displayed Janus C J38!). Poster here:
This page gives more details about the Armée de 'Air et de l'Espace PR event. It implies that the Fennec Canon will be on the ground from 14:00 and that the Puma will land following a drop of parachutists @ 15:00.
You can download app from ministry of defence from app stores 14-juillet with lots of info about participating aircraft and history etc.
Also with YouTube livelink to defile etc.
Okay the info is French only
In summary for the French fighters which parade in Paris on Friday and normally visible in Evreux :
*5 Rafale 30th Fighter Wing,
*5 Rafale 4th Fighter Wing,
*2 Mirage-2000D 30th Fighter Wing,
*4 Mirage-2000D 3rd Fighter Wing,
*3 Mirage-2000-5 2nd Fighter Wing.
It is necessary to add some spares, we will see tomorrow.
Not allowed to photograph military aircraft in France, are they serious?
The military buildings are forbidden to be photographed but not the military aircraft, it's a great first... I never had this problem in Evreux for July 13th and 14th, fingers crossed for tomorrow.
They are still laughable our French gendarmes... We have a lot to learn from England, Belgium or the Netherlands...
