2 - Can a flight considered valid for FAI badges or records if the power
is
temporarily interrupted (which results in 2 log files)?


Depends! If the finish of 1 logfile and the start of the next are less than
60 seconds apart then I think you can. Not sure beyond that.

Flight Recorders that comply with the latest specification will continue
with the recording without creating a new file after a power break of up
to about 5 minutes. I remember that Volkslogger does not do this however
many others do.

It would seem logical that five minutes can elapse between the end of
one file and the start of the next. The figure 60 seconds is the maximum
setting between fixes in normal operation, but does not mean that a
break in power exceeding this but less than five minutes will invalidate
the flight.
