I think Cross country (or distance flight) is whatever takes you out of
local gliding range of your home airport... That is, when you need to take a
thermal, get some heigh, or you land out.

I saw a posting on a web site about Steve Fossett's around the world
flight.
Just think, since he landed at the same airport that he took off from, he
can't log that flight as 'cross country flight'.
