Landing at O'Hare in a smaller bombardier 2x2 (crj 700 I think) jet following a jumbo was an interesting (white knuckle) ride I had in recent memory. The plane turned over lake michigan east of the city and felt like it went completely 90deg to the ground losing a good amount of altitude which I do not believe was the pilots intention. I definitely heard a few gasps, the stewardess curse and my wife grip my hand hard. Followed by 10 minutes of bumps, drops, and wing waggling and a landing that felt like we simply dropped 10 feet on to the tarmac.
Those little jets man... they're fine most of the time but what a spooky experience that was.
