Several more months? Not surprising, since this is a complex dance of sorts in which everyone involved is trying to see to it that they get the best deal after all the dust settles.

If the legal issues involved in this aircraft's engine problems are anything like what happens in the US when an Amtrak (US national passenger rail system) car gets damaged, that may well take years. I really hope all of these problems -- mechanical and logistical and administrative and financial and legal and insurance -- get resolved fairly and soon.

Won't sitting outside in the weather for months cause problems? Or are there ways to protect her until she can be flown out? (I only ask because I do not know, not being any kind of aviation professional, and I want to learn.)
