$100 hamburger

From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia

Aviation slang. The term "$100 hamburger" refers to a concept in aviation culture where pilots fly to a specific airport or destination solely for the purpose of enjoying a meal, often at a small airport diner or restaurant. The idea is that pilots are willing to spend significant amounts of money on fuel (hence the "$100" reference) just for the experience of dining at a particular location. This concept has been popular among general aviation pilots as a way to combine their love of flying with good food and camaraderie. The $100 hamburger tradition highlights the social aspects of flying and the sense of community among aviators.
