It was a logical question as there have been several incidents of lasers being shone into cockpits AT Teterboro airport.
Um, yes it was logical. Now here's a question for you. Of all these incidents how many have gone down because of laser dazzling? You see, that is why there is a co-pilot, just in case the pilot is incapacitated for any reason. I understand this plane was probably taking off, which would not allow much time for the copilot to take control, but if you look closely the jet never left the ground which to me means there was some mechanical problem not allowing the jet to get airborne. If the pilot was blinded you don't think that the co-pilot could have pulled back on the controls and at least got them into the air? Or was this "laser terrorist" so good that he blinded them both with one fail swoop of his penlight? I think not.
Here's a question for you: How many of the planes laser dazzled were taking off?
Look, Mr. Turbowski...
It's a discussion forum and the laser incidents were discussed as the story was breaking.
