You remove the back seats and replace them with auxiliary fuel tanks. Typically this is done by couriers delivering aircraft for sale - the seats are then shipped separately as freight.
A friend of mine did this for a living in his early 30's, he said those flights are probably the most dangerous things he's done in his life. He'd fly commercial to Canada, scout around for a good plane, arrange the sale and the various bits and pieces of paperwork, strip it down as much as possible, install extra fuel tanks and some other gear, then go to Halifax, check the plane over once more and then start puddle jumping hop by hop until reaching continental Europe. You could not pay me enough to try a stunt like that, let alone several times.

Are there any more details available about this, or is there just that FlightAware log? How does one ensure they have enough fuel to do this?!
