You can buy these hand-held little lasers for $4-5 dollars in any tourist trap, or even Walmart.
The kids that buy them have no frikken clue how bad these can be on aircrew. Then green ones are especially bad, and the beam diffuses at range, getting much larger.
I’ve never been able to find the green ones that cheap, they were originally designed for astronomical use and I’d love to find one. Last time I checked the green astronomical pointers were over $75. I find red all over the place for $5 or less, no green. The red won’t work for pointing out stars. I’ve used the astronomical type and they are great, when someone wants to know just where that nebula is, the thing will point it out precisely.
I can’t imagine ever pointing one at a person, I’ve had a red one panned across my eyes by accident, it’s not fun. IN an aircraft it’s dangerous, I hope they make an example of this guy and discourage a few other morons. It’s becoming a real problem around airports.
