Hello you gorgeous Slovak people 🙂
Yesterday my Slovak girlfriend went to the Bratislava airport to do some planespotting for me.
[Here is one of the pictures she snapped.](https://imgur.com/a/PBgSyDS)
It appears to be the Tupolev Tu-154 used by the Slovak government, I cannot see the name of the airplane but, according to wikipedia it should be OM-BYO;
Now as far as I know this airplane was retired from flying on the 27th of September 2017 and there is even a (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZ0BSMLEvrw&t=3295s) about it and according to [wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupolev_Tu-154) the airplane is now on display at the Museum of Aviation in Košice, Slovakia;
I am wondering if any of you know how and why the plane is now in Bratislava and if they are maybe planning to make it fly again.
Thank you 🙂

If i am not mistaken, OM-BYO is in Slovak Technical museum in Kosice and OM-BYR is the one she snapped.
there were two Tu-154 used by the government, this is probably OM-BYR, [older article in Slovak](https://www.aktuality.sk/clanok/302268/foto-vladny-special-so-salonom-spalnou-a-sprchou-tento-uz-vsak-nelieta/)
Which 3 letter agency do you work for?
