Yes, but it has been a long time! 1980 or so. My dad & I went. There's actually no feeling of moving because you're moving with the wind. Quiet too, except when the pilot runs the burner. However, as we were coming in for a landing in a cornfield, the pilot said to be sure we bend our knees to soften the blow.

Couldn't do it now as a fear of heights has become part of being older. :-(
