$100 hamburger

A general aviation flight that involves flying a short distance, eating a meal, and flying back.

It’s called hunting the $100 hamburger — “$100” referring to the cost of fuel — sort of the aeronautical equivalent of lazy Sunday drives in which the destination isn’t as important as the pleasure of getting away.
