Their earlier announced reports speak against each other but hopefully the Orange Lion scheme can be kept for an other year (as the last phrase implies). It remains a nice change of sight between all those grey machines
J-015 returned today to Volkel and a source on Volkel base mentions that the J-015 will go to accor in week 8 to be repainted, the orange travelpod is allready grey

My inside source tells me the Orange Lion has about 150 roaring hours left and will not be painted grey this airshowseason. So, one more season of orange supremacy
