Does the time that the Avenger spends traveling affect any countdowns?
I've been unable to tell whether time spent flying from location to location counts towards any of your own timers (research, construction, healing, etc.). That is, I've never had a project finish in midair or upon landing, even though some trips seem to take upwards of half a day. Does it affect any countdowns? It seems like it might still move time forward on alien actions, but I haven't noticed one way or the other.
(note that it at the very least affects achievements, assuming the "Exquisite Timing" achievement for beating it by July 1st works as described)

I'll need to research your assertion that it doesn't affect your internal progress timers for research/construction/building items.
However, time definitely passes when a UFO is searching for the Avenger. Time also passes for the countdown you get if the Avatar Project timeline is filled up. MiloPrice in a comment below also mentions soldier healing progressing while the Avenger is flying.

There must be a time forward key or something... go to the bridge (the holo globe) and you can pass time either by scanning at various locations for rewards (if available) or by scanning at resistance HQ (for intel, faster recovery, or for faster building, but I just leave it on intel).Why Avengers: Endgame's Time Travel Makes Perfect Sense
