Wow, at first when I saw the photo, I was wondering what on earth TG was thinking with that paint job. Until I read the text to see that it's flying into Hamburg for it's real paint job.

You would think the three fuselage sections would have been sprayed all the same shade of mucky green-you can see the joins!
Seriously though, great to see it in the air although I fear I will not be in it for my BKK/LHR January flights as it destined for Frankfurt
