    Aside from that being amazing, can you imagine being stuck in a single seat aircraft for 5 days straight? How the heck did his legs survive that?

      He was a jet pilot for the Swiss Air Force before he founded the Solar Impulse Project. I'm guessing endurance flight was a part of his training for the air force.
