After being bombarded with a massive dose of gamma radiation while saving a young man's life during an experimental bomb testing, Dr. Robert Bruce Banner was transformed into the Incredible Hulk: a green behemoth who is the living personification of rage and pure physical strength.
Aside from the aforementioned 'He jumps high' argument, the fact that he CAN'T fly is what allows most other Marvel superheroes to sleep soundly at night: The Hulk can jump, yes, but if he could fly? There'd be no escaping him. Heroes with flight capability know that if they see the Hulk, they can get airborne and high enough that he can't reach them. They have a way to escape him if necessary. That's what they hold onto to keep themselves from defecating at the sight of the Jade Giant.
But if that advantage was taken away? If they suddenly had to deal with a flying Hulk, whose only getting stronger by the second? Well, let's just say there will be a lot of heroes changing their costume color to a nice shade of brown.
