Yesterday (Wednesday) around noon time there was a VERY loud jet over TV. Did anyone happen to see what kind of jet it was? We were unable to see it anywhere. In the past I've seen Warthogs flying around.

I was playing golf at Ocala Palms when it come overhead. Could n 't make out any markings but here is a picture.

Boeing C-17 Globemaster, I think.

I think you are right. They used to and still might fly maneuvers in the North Myrtle Beach area, along with touch and go's at the Grand Strand Airport.

The C-17's along with C-130's taking off and landing, also pass over our house regularly from RAF. Brize Norton, (12miles away) and have always found the sound quite reasonable.
Never heard one that could be described as loud.
However, very low flying Chinooks playing silly boogers, and creeping up, can scare the living **** out of you!

Ocala Palms is about 3 miles from Ocala International Airport (OCF). The plane that you took a picture of has its landing gear down. Coincidentally, OCF's website appears to have a photo of a Boeing C-17 as one of its banners.
