How many hours would it take to fly around the world non-stop.?
If you flew from pole to pole.I know that it not possible without stopping but I just would like to know. It depends on what kind of plane you are in. Rutan's Voyager, which actually did this flight, though it flew west to east, not north to south, took just over 216 hours.
The shuttle does it in about 90 minutes. A commercial jet would take about 40 to 50 hours. A fast military jet could do it in about 16 to 21 hours.
