Free flying is all about the search. Scouring weather forecasts for any glimmer of hope of flyable weather, racing to flying sites to be at the perfect launch at the right time, hunting for the elusive thermal, gliding off into the unknown for bigger distances, faster competition times or wilder adventures...

Since 1988, Cross Country has been the leading voice for the worldwide band of 100,000+ pilots who wake up every day thinking about this search. Six times a year, our magazine content reflects our obsession with flying, and we express it by packing each bimonthly issue with the most imaginative, inspirational photography and writing we can lay our hands on.
