Narrative:

We lifted off mgm. It was a clear day; with light winds and good visibility. We took off from the end of runway 28 cleared runway heading to 3;000 ft. The take off; rotation and initial climb went normal; with call outs and control movements at the correct time/speeds. At approximately 2;200 ft and about 200 KTS my (pilot flying; left seat) left windscreen was filled with an incredible view of an F-16 in a 90 degree left banked turn crossing the nose of our aircraft. It was so close I could see the panel lines on its wings. At just over 2;300 ft I was looking out my far left window straight down the 16's tailpipe. There was no ATC callout. There was no one else on our tower frequency. There was no TCAS alert; just engine noise and my passengers uttering a few expletives. We learned that a flight of four 16's had come in and that the fourth element had broken off for some reason. I also learned that their normal overhead traffic entries and patterns are done at 1;700 ft; not 2;200-2;300 as we experienced. This guy was well in excess of the 200 KT limit and probably over the 250 KTS limit us mere mortals have to observe. I think this incident is an excellent example of the incompatibility of civilian and military aircraft. Regardless of how equipped; it is ridiculous that they can disregard altitude and speed rules and fly in totally hidden to any civilian traffic.
