I understand Tony's bias, but they seem unlikely to me. We reserve
instrumental for public transportation, hence ???ехал велосипедом and
*скакал/ехал конем are from highly unlikely to impossible.
Долететь ракетой is most likely a metaphor: Муж,точно не помню за
сколько,но ракетой долетел до Дн-ка за Аленкой. (http://www.sadiba.com.ua/forum/archive/index.php/t-1435-p-2.html
) The same could be said about скакать конем — like a horse, not on a
horse.
All of us who are unlikely to fly on a rocket could sail on one: Точно
помню, потому что обратно ракетой плыл. http://bagaevka.pp.ru/news.pl?page=117
But both ракета and instrumental are waning, and one is more likely to
encounter Мало того, сегодня плыл на метеоре из Кронштадта в Питер.
I found one example of летал воздушным шаром (http://zhurnal.lib.ru/a/alifanow_o_w/it.shtml
), as opposed то 33,300 for летал на воздушном шаре, so I would not
recommend it.
