I did once and it was not cool.(didn't plan on going airborn) Fun at first but you get the feeling you can screw up your car....

I got air a lot of times driving a Global Express and Gulfsream IV. Hit about 135 mph and got air for over 12 hours a number of times. Sure did have a sore butt when the wheels finally hit the gound.

I watched the leader of a group drive (awhile back) go hauling arse down a nice wide road, only to come to an intersection with the BIGGEST unmarked DIPS I had seen for a long time. He flew up outta the first one and got bounced in and out of the second one as the nose dipped waaaaay down and we could see ALOT of the underside of his car.

His front bumper did not appreciate it one bit.
