Danger in the skies

An ad on Channel 7 just then, for their News, carried a snippet from a recent story - about a new danger to airline passengers - people shining lasers into pilots' eyes.
Funny, that's the same technology they were talking about introducing to Washington some time ago - to flash pilots straying into restricted airspace. Those stories suggested the practice wasn't dangerous - just a friendly warning which is probably upgradeable to something not so friendly if needed.
