Turkey Kayseri AB Herks

A while back I had a report of a Herk on static display at Kayseri AB. I researched the 14 Herks the Turkish AF was supposed to have and all were reported flying, so I thought the report was a mistake.

Then this month I saw another report that a white C-130A was on display at Kayseri.

Turkish AF as far as I know never recieved any A's.

I went on Google Earth and there was a white Herk on display at the west end of the base.

Can anyone idetnify it for me?

Thanks

Bob

Does it look like this? http://www.airliners.net/photo/Turkey---Air/Lockheed-C-130E-Hercules/1939311/&sid=0ddfc72f7e3e0637ac7f0fd3273892dd

That is the paint scheme for 73-0991, the support aircraft for the Turkish Stars demo team.

As an aside, the Turkish Air Force herks have been repainted with new tail registrations. This is what I've seen:

3503 57-0527

3532 58-0736

3643 61-0960

3670 61-2634

4011 63-3186

4012 63-3187

4015 63-3188

4016 63-3189

4427 70-1947

4514 71-1468

4524 73-0991
