Lose the Laser

Aiming a laser at an aircraft is a serious safety risk and violates federal law. Many high-powered lasers can completely incapacitate pilots who are trying to fly safely to their destinations and may be carrying hundreds of passengers. Please refer to laser safety for more details and an informational video on the civil and criminal penalties for pointing a laser at an aircraft.
