minus-squareCADmonkey@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·11 days ago Could have easily been a small plane instead Couldn’t it also cause problems for a large plane? I’m pretty sure if I shined my little green laser into the sky under the approach for a local airport I’d get a knock on the door pretty fast.
