Barksdale AFB to Korea and back, 33+ hours.

Try 313 hours 35 minutes (13 days and 13 nights) in the air including
adjusting the points and changing the 200 hp Lycoming's spark plugs
via crawling outside the cockpit and straddling the cowling three
inches away from the spinning prop!!

-From "The Flying Years" by Lou Reichers

Trumped! He wins. Although at least by having to crawl out on the wing you get
both exercise and fresh air.
