Not any of you specifically.
Dangerous laser strikes topped all previous records in 2023. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) received 13,304 reports from pilots last year, a 41 percent increase over 2022. https://www.faa.gov/newsroom/dangerous-laser-strikes-increase-highest-numbers --- Naz Reid ... Copied to Clipboard!

I didn't even know this was a thing. Can a normal cat/presentation pointer reach planes, or are people getting their hands on more powerful beams?

I was in my backyard a couple days ago and saw an airplane and remembered how people point lasers at them. The first thought I had was "Can a regular laser even make it that far?" But yes, it's a terrible thing to do. I recall seeing footage of what the people in the cockpit see. It's blinding. They can also zoom in and see exactly who's doing it.

Even standard laser pointers can be an issue. Yeah, I can remember many years ago (back when these things were all the rage), I pointed one at a water tower near my house and could see the laser on it. It's not like a flashlight where it's just going to shine maybe up to 20 feet ahead of you. --- God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in her shoes, 'cause then you really might know what it's like to have to choose. - Everlast ...

Was showing some folks a laser pointer a number of years back and how you could use it to point out stars and whatnot, let the one guy try it and said "do not shine it at aircraft" and he literally says "like this?" and picks out the first aircraft he sees and shines the laser at it. Amazingly enough, people are that stupid. I promptly took it away from him and have never let anyone use one of my laser pointers since.
