He needs to fly out to Catalina for a buffalo burger. The best part of the trip is walking over to the edge of the runway and looking down at all the airplane bones. The runway slopes uphill causing some pilots to set down in the middle of the runway and roll clear off the edge.

RESTAURANTS – No trip to Catalina is complete without having a buffalo burger. The best on the island are at the airport’s small restaurant, called Buffalo Springs Station. Some locals, however, argue it’s just outside of Avalon at the Buffalo Nickle, though it’s tough to pass on the carne asada nachos (it’s at the helicopter landing; there’s a free shuttle service).
