It's only fun and games until someone takes it too seriously.

How the heck should I compete with a total Beatles' Burn-Out Nerd?

IIRC it is being counted by when the flight starts/ends, thats why it may be >7days

If you have a good version of FlightGear and a good aircraft with a good autopilot you can do what I have seen someone describe doing: Plan a flight that takes about as much time as work/school + trip there and home, and one for when you are asleep. Manually take off and land, but let the aircraft do its thing while you are busy or asleep.

Or ask the shuttle people. They should beat you on distance covered aswell But I doubt you'd find any of them on MP...

There are airplanes that can fly more than 12 hours and some of them are capable of in-air refueling.

I think I figured that out a few months in. Good way to pass the time if your autopilot can handle the airplane turning into a glider.

Correct. For example, one made a flight from 03.05.2020 0000UTC till 09.05.2020 2355UTC, then make another flight from 09.05.2020 2358UTC to 11.05.2020 2357UTC, flight time of the week of 03.05.2020-09.05.2020 would be 8 days 23hours 57minutes.
