If I'm going to be offensive you will know it without question.

The $100 hamburger is where a pilot flies a small Cessna 172 to an airport 1 hour away, has a hamburger at the airport or country club, then flies back home. It's called the $100 hamburger because that's what it typically cost to operate the flight. And with John being a pilot, that's what they did.

Today it's a little more, but the name sticks.

I like you Keatah, but please calm yourself, I'm in England.

I've never Ducking heard of a 100$ burger.

Sounds mad to me, and as someone who does not eat much red meat and never burgers, I didn't know.

So, let me get this straight, you are talking about a normal burger? Wow.

Some people have too much money; she seemed like a lovely girl and I just didn't want any sharp remarks, and put my response into context:

there's one fella on here, every time I post something significant the clown pops up with bitchy remarks. I know you've not done that; thank you for explaining.

$100 burger.

Only in America!

No worries. The burger price remains at $9.95'ish. The cost of fuel and renting a plane costs the $100 - $200. Those were about $100 when the term was coined more or less. It's sometimes used as an "excuse" just to go out flying or to build hours. It's an aviation thing you know.

In JT's case, when he had Ella Clipper, that'd be a $10,000 hamburger!
