The F16 was practicing instrument approaches in to Charleston, but also may have been on a low-level IR route. The IR route is very close to the accident site.

The 150 was departing the airport 17nm North of Charleston and headed to Myrtle Beach (opposite direction). From the location of the site, the 150 may have been in a climbing left hand turn. He was outside of the Class C, so he may not have been talking to anyone (yet).
