If you're able to stabilize yourself while in the air, I can see it being useful to see targets that would normally be hidden from view. Having a bird's-eye-view is really helpful for snipers (don't they usually take high ground anyway), as far as I know. Of course, you're also easier to hit floating up in the air like that, since you're in plain sight.
