Did it have 4 prop engines or was it a jet? If it had propellers on it, and it was a large brd flying low, it was a C130. Their job is to fly low and terrain hug to get to their LZ to drop off troops or equipment. Lake Martin has been in their training area for years. And it's probably an Air Guard unit from Montgomery or somewhere close. If you see the bird again check the tail for markings and for a unit ID. It's always right below the tail stripe/flash. Then you can do a google search for the unit.

Even if you do find out what unit it is there's isn't anything you can really do. I live in the supersonic test range for the east coast. When they test the F15's after overhaul they have to go supersonic. So I live with daily sonic booms. I make sure everything on my walls is secure all the time. Nothing like cleaning up after something falls and breaks. To me it's the sound of freedom and just a small price to pay to know those guys are out there defending all of us here at home by making sure the weapon system works like it's supposed to.

Aim High...US Air Force!!
