# MD_LIST_FLIGHTS
> List the Flights you own with summary metadata.
Returns the summary metadata for every [Flight](/concepts/flights) owned by the caller. Use the optional `LIMIT` and `OFFSET` parameters to page through large result sets.

## Syntax

```sql
SELECT * FROM MD_LIST_FLIGHTS(
    "LIMIT" := <n>,
    "OFFSET" := <n>
);
```

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `LIMIT` | `BIGINT` | No | `20` | Maximum number of Flights to return. |
| `OFFSET` | `BIGINT` | No | `0` | Skip this many Flights before returning. |

`LIMIT` and `OFFSET` collide with SQL keywords and must be quoted with double quotes when passed as named arguments.

## Return columns

| Column | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `flight_id` | `UUID` | Flight identifier. |
| `flight_name` | `VARCHAR` | The Flight name. |
| `schedule_cron` | `VARCHAR` | Cron expression, or `NULL` for on-demand. |
| `status` | `VARCHAR` | Schedule status (for example, `JOB_STATUS_ACTIVE`). |
| `current_version` | `INTEGER` | Latest version number. |
| `created_at` | `TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE` | Creation timestamp. |
| `updated_at` | `TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE` | Last update timestamp. |

Version-specific content (`source_code`, `requirements_txt`, `config`) is not on this row; query [`MD_GET_FLIGHT_VERSION`](../md-get-flight-version) when you need it.

:::note
The name column is `flight_name`, not `name`. Filter and project with `flight_name` (for example, `WHERE flight_name = 'hourly_metrics'`).

## Examples

List all Flights:

```sql
SELECT flight_id, flight_name, schedule_cron, current_version
FROM MD_LIST_FLIGHTS();
```

Page through results:

```sql
SELECT flight_name
FROM MD_LIST_FLIGHTS("LIMIT" := 50, "OFFSET" := 100);
```

Find Flights with active schedules:

```sql
SELECT flight_name, schedule_cron
FROM MD_LIST_FLIGHTS()
WHERE schedule_cron IS NOT NULL;
```
