July 14th is the main national holiday in France, and the Patrouille de France of the French Air Force usually offers a display of the Tricolore in the skies of Paris made with fighter jets streaking in formation while releasing colored smoke.

In 2018 one of the nine smoke tint containers was swicthed, causing the rightmost one to be red instead of the expected blue: photo (2018) (compare with 2022 for example].

The mistake did not go unnoticed by spectators and even inspired some.
