ANC bash: 3 held over green laser light

[copacetic]

Give a 14 year old a laser and he will point it at averything... especially planes.
The publicity on this is a good thing for awareness, but I hope the kids don`t get a criminal record for this.

Let's hope. The 45 year old father should have known better though...

Then the parents are to blame.
hence why the father in this case was also arrested (unless he himself was dumb enough to do this).
I also own one of these things and have warned my children about it's use. not just with planes, but also with vehicles.
With great power comes great responsibility.

Hence, the kind of. I came on a bit strong initially, my apologies.

No problem. I guess I have also misrepresented myself in this thread.
When I first read about this on Facebook I was just as angry about it as you guys.
But the chance to have a bash at the ANC is always a tasty morsel to me.
My apologies as well.

Only helicopters I've flown is simulated remote helis, the amount of concentration needed is just insane. A second of blindness/distraction is all it takes to crash.
