LASER POINTED AT LANDING AIRCRAFT IN DENVER

Описание: Pointing lasers at airplanes is hazardous because the intense light can distract or disorient pilots, cause glare, flashblindness, or even temporary eye damage, particularly during critical phases of flight like takeoff and landing. This endangers the safety of the aircraft, as pilots may lose visibility or control, increasing the risk of accidents. In the U.S., shining a laser at an aircraft is a federal offense, with penalties including fines of up to $250,000 and up to five years in prison, depending on the severity of the incident.
