Ah, it's good to be back.

Day 1:
Leia ship is attacked, droids plummit to planet, C-3PO pisses off R2 and the two separate, (evening) both droids are captured by Jawas
Day 2:
Droids are bought by Owen, Luke looses droids

(morning) Luke finds droids, meets up with Obi-Wan, (afternoon) Luke's family is dead/drive to Mos Eisly, escape on Falcon
Day 4:
(early AM) Reach remains of Alderaan (based on Han's military time comment "We'll be there by 0100 hours"), pulled into Death Star, rescue of Princess, escape from Death Star, flight to Yavin 4, (early evening) decoding of R2's files, briefing, attack on the Death Star/destruction, return to base
Day 5:
Awards Celebration
(this is where I take some creative leave - How long did it take to get to the detention center to get Leia? I say a good hour and a half. How long did it take to get back to the ship? About the same. How long of a flight to Yavin? I say they reached Yavin 12 - 14 hours after the gang first found the remains of Alderaan)

0100 - arive at alderaan's remains
0130 - Falcon is in the docking bay and the scanning crew gets there on the double
0150 - Gang ambushes troops and steals their armor, hops into control booth
0200 - R2 finds the reactor, Obi-Wan leaves
0210 - Han and Luke run off to try and find Leia
0350 - after much travel (because it is a huge ass station) Han and Luke find the detention center
0405 - Leia saves their skins
0415 - gang escapes trash compactor, and head off for the falcon
0600 - reach over pass where the falcon is, gang separates
0630 - gang reunites by falcon, Obi-Wan dies
0635 - falcon escapes death star
(For nice round numbers I say it took them 12 hours to reach Yavin 4, I'm sure a few of them got a couple hours of shut-eye)
6:35 PM - gang reaches the Rebel base
6:40 PM - Leia instructs the commander to work on R2 right away (since she knows they were all tracked there), Luke meets up with Biggs and takes the X-wing pilot test
midnight - Information is decoded and a weekness has been found
Day 5:
0100 - pilots assemble, doubt the almighty power of the proton torpedo
0200 - death star approaches, pilots scramble
0230 - attack on death star begins
0300 - death star gets blown the hell up
0320 - Luke is mauled by his new fans, R2 heads off for repairs
(at this point, everyone is very tired, but thrilled. The rest of Day 5 is devoted to cleaning up, getting some sleep, eating something, and getting ready for the awards the next day)
Day 6:
Party!!! Woo!
(I take creative liberty in saying that the info in R2 was decoded in 6 hours or so, mostly because the information wouldn't be that hard to read since it is all digital and computerized and the whole gambit. Also, the Rebels had an incentive to find a weakness quickly since they knew that Leia had been tracked, and further proof off that would be that the Death Star did indeed show up just shortly after the Falcon did.)

In Star Wars, they travel from one side of the Galaxy to the other presumably in hours. When Voyager got stuck in the Delta Quadrant in Star Trek, they had a 76 year journey at Warp Factor 10 to get home to earth.
If you imagine Voyager with a Star Wars Hyperspace drive it would be a very short series..................
OPENING CREDITS
Harry Kim - We have left the worm hole and we are billions of miles from home in the Delta Quadrant.
Captain Janeway - Bugger, we will be late home for supper. Radio ahead and ask someone to put a tape in to record ER. Best put the kettle on again too.......
THE END
Back on topic, what always got me was the escape from Hoth in Empire. We see Luke arriving at Dagobah whilst Han is still shaking off TIE Fighters whilst leaving Hoth!!
I never could work that one out.

I also agree with Ric that once they rescue the princess and get back to Yavin 4, the attack on the death star doesn't occur till at least the next day, maybe even later.
Anyone care to do a timeline for ESB (which is probably the trickiest)?
War does not make one great.

Well, that's another hyperdrive issue, isn't it? The X-Wing's hyperdrive was working fine, while the Falcon was hoofing it on normal speed.

By all technical accounts (I'm a HUGE Voyager fan), they didn't end up in the Delta Quadrant because of a wormhole. It was the caretaker's array that sucked Voyager to the otherside of the galaxy.
Anyway, yeah, how 'bout that Star Wars timeline, eh?
ESB is quite difficult to time line because as an audiance we don't have a lot of references (other than logic) to come up with a proper time line. Since the Falcon had no hyperspeed that means that they were on thrusters only and that has got to be one long ass trek. They said that they were in a solar system and that Bespin was one of the planets (makes sense since they were in an asteroid field; those don't just apear in random parts of the universe). It takes us months to send probes to Mars, let alone the newest probe sent to Pluto - which will take 9 years to get there.
So the Falcon had to limp it's way to Bespin, and Han said it was far but do-able.
Kershner said that ESB does take place over several months, which is plausable, but it's hard to see because none of the character's clothes change. Okay, Leia escaped with Han and only had the clothes she was wearing, but she should have changed her hair. I mean, I can't stand wearing the same up-do hair style for more than a day. I get those "hair head aches" where your scalp hurts. I blame the director for that one. He could have at least given us some sort of reference that a lot of time was elapsing. Given Luke a bit of a 5 o'clock shadow later in his training, have Leia change her hair style once or twice. Hell, have her take off her coat for once and run around in her tanktop for a few scenes.
And to make things worse, when she get's to bespin she changes, but then after the torture she is back in her same damn snow clothes she's been wearing for 3 months.

well, we don't see the Falcon between their decision to head for bespin and when they get there, Maybe Leia made due with some of Han's clothes, and then changed back into her own to appear presentable on Bespin.
As for Boba Fett, I'm guessing he hyperspaced ahead. I don't believe the falcon would be followed for a month without them finding out.
