90 planes were to cross the Parisian sky this Thursday and fly over the Champs-Élysées on the occasion of the military parade on July 14, with, in detail, 65 planes and 25 helicopters. The squadron will finally be a little less numerous: in fact, the Civil Security has decided to send three of the ships planned in the program to a Gironde that has been ravaging the flames for two days. According to this tally provided by France Bleu, 3,750 hectares of forest have already gone up in smoke since Tuesday, swept away by two separate fires, one in Landiras, the other in La Teste-de-Buch.
“A Great Thought for Them”
Alexandre Jouassard, spokesman for Civil Security, explained to our microphone this Thursday morning: “Having these planes in the Parisian sky is a source of pride. Unfortunately, these three planes are in operation. The operation has priority over the rest, obviously. , so being in Gironde all day.
“There is an emotion because they are what best represents Civil Security. The Canadair, in the image that the French population has of them, is Civil Security, so yes, we will miss them but we will have a great thought for them throughout the parade. “, he promised.
The air parade on July 14 will in any case begin at 10:34 sharp according to the official agenda, launched by the French Patrol.
