Washington - The US announced a project to let pilots set their own course through the skies. Faster travel, lower costs and improved safety are expected from the so-called free-flight plan. "It's the right time to begin. It will be a long-term" effort, Federal Aviation Administrator David Hinson said. He estimated that a decade may be needed fully to phase in free flight. AP
