So we wanted to go to a flying festival this summer. Somewhere among lush flying sites with big distance potential. We wanted to try out all the new gliders in a festival during the day, and catch up with our friends, drink and throw silly shapes to local bands until the early hours. Good food, talks and seminars by some of the country’s best pilots, acro displays by the world’s most talented pilots and a trade tent with the latest gear and bargains would top it all off. . .

Cross Country are teaming up with the Welsh Borders crew to resurrect the legendary Paramania Fly-In. Come and join us for the first UK Homegrown Festival - bring the family!
