WestJet pilot’s eyes burned by a green laser light on flight to Florida
A WestJet pilot flying from Newfoundland to Orlando International Airport had his eyes burned by a green laser light, U.S. Federal Aviation Administration officials said Wednesday. Spokeswoman Kathleen Bergen said that the WestJet Airlines aircraft was about 40 kilometres from the airport when the laser light hit the pilot. The flight landed safely a short time later, and the pilot was placed on medical leave. (www.airlive.net) Mais...

We need to federalize this crime and impose mandatory minimum sentences of five to ten years if injury is involved.
There must be some way we can regulate the sales of do it yourself home assembled laser kits. The really powerful equipment is purchased from high end science supply outlets. We have to find a way of stopping by controlling this wreckless hobby. People are getting hurt and eventually killed.
