UR-82060 An225 current status?

Anyone know where the Antonov 225 is at present? Haven't seen or heard tell of it for quite a few months now. I guess it's probably in Kiev but what is its current status?

Believe it has been undergoing a check at Gostomel in the last couple of months.

All well and good.... but still no confirmation of the current location. Seems to have been off line for a long period of time. Hopefully it's not grounded.

I dont know how old the image is, but I just took a look at Google Earth and the image of Gostomel shows it on the ground there.

Look at Украинский Споттерский Сайт - Фото самолета (ID:19427) Antonov Design Bureau Antonov An-225 Mriya UR-82060 . Yes, UR-82060 got a new coat ! Blue and yellow are the colours of the Ukrainian flag.

Veeps, is she due for Germany this first weekend of August? Rumours of delays, true or not?

Many thanks for your reply !

Some people are hard to please...

Veeps, you happen to have the times and/or dates available for LEJ/Leipzig ?

For those who still don't know: Scotty's Russian-Aviation.net is now truly gone, my telephone call to Oz didn't help...

Another picture of UR-82060 in his new coat, this time taken side on, probably from behind the fence at Gostomel:
