- hanniabu 7y agoEhhhh, the aircraft flew into the trajectory, are there no other comparable scenarios where there's an intersection that can happen accidentally?
- tonyarkles 7y agoBasically, if you're planning on pointing a laser into the sky, you need at a minimum issue a NOTAM to inform aviators of the hazard. Things like outdoor concerts and some weather observation systems do this. But... Sending a laser into the sky and intersecting an aircraft that was operating per regulation? That's on the laser-er, and "creating a hazard to aviation" is not a charge that you'll be happy dealing with in many countries.
- the_seraphim 7y agosending a NOTAM isnt hard... you could put in a permenant notam. Also you wouldnt need a laser just a really bright searchlight
- samirm 7y agoDoesn't really matter if you're across the globe...
- branchan 7y agoThis would be rare and it would only affect the pilot if the laser was tracking the plane as it flew overhead.
