Positively uncivil but I feel worthy of posting.
This photo taken by Tony McFarlin shows the Lockheed LC130H 92-1094 c/n 382-5402 on the Deep Freeze apron at Christchurch International Airport yesterday 08-10-2022.
It arrived as call sign GUMBY94.
A nocturnal image from Matt Hayes.
The GUMBY reference comes from :-

The aircraft has a picture of said character in the lower left flight deck window !

Its rudder and elevator appear to be in its normal scheme as noted below at Christchurch on 13-11-2019.

Any ideas why they would paint a snowbird emerald green?
