Fly-Eat-Back
The classic $100 hamburger run, reimagined. Pick a radius, pick a restaurant, and head home.
Like driving somewhere for brunch
Fly-Eat-Back is the perfect feature for those weekend mornings when you want to fly somewhere new, eat a great meal, and be back at the hangar before dinner.
Pick how far you want to fly — 50 nautical miles, 100, 200, whatever fits your day. Fly-n-Eat returns every airport restaurant within that radius of your home base, complete with hours, menus, and what they’re famous for.
It’s the modern answer to the typewritten list of “good places to eat” stapled to the FBO bulletin board.

From Cuyahoga County (KCGF)
Here’s what a Saturday morning of Fly-Eat-Back looks like out of Rick’s home base in Cleveland.
✈️ Pick KCGF + 100 nautical miles
You’ll find airport restaurants like Carroll County Airport Restaurant in Ohio, famous for its pie — locals show up just to watch airplanes land and take off.
🍝 Try Serventi’s on the Runway
In Butler, Pennsylvania (KBTP), Serventi’s serves what Rick calls the best veal parm next to Giovanni’s. A perfect Fly-Eat-Back destination.
🍔 Hunt down hidden gems
These are diners and restaurants even the locals go to — small restaurants at small airports. Not Sbarro or Chick-fil-A. Real food, real flying adventures.
