Jet Turns Back After Laser Incident
航班遭激光扫射返航
A flight from London (UK) to New York had to turn back this weekend after someone pointed a laser at the plane. The Virgin Atlantic pilot felt unwell after the incident and decided to turn the plane around as a precautionary measure. The mischievous use of handheld lasers is becoming more common, and many pilots think these pointers should be listed as offensive weapons. The powerful beams can disorient pilots and affect their vision. It is illegal to shine a light at a plane, but it is not illegal to own a laser pointer. High-powered lasers are readily available over the Internet.
