Anyone see the C-130 buzzing the beach in Boynton today?

Sucker was low! Cool as hell to see.

I was cresting the bridge as it was approaching the pier, it dipped its wings, went out around the pier and came back in. I felt like I was on the same level and I was only 60 feet up!!!

What plane is this? I am pretty sure it is not a C130

That photo is not a C-130

I believe that is more likely a Mig 17 - See pic here...

Every now and then when I'm out in the river I'll hear something and look up and see either the Coast Guard C-130 and one of Black Hawks from one the military bases around here. A few weeks ago I was fishing C-23 during a storm and the Hawk was circling around with his spotlight for some reason.
