Very wrong!
I was removed from these forums for unknown reasons!
I have legit questions some may have been offended by..
I am a wealth of information for you about the hazzards of lasers
and the positive use of the same..
cockpits are getting flashed for sure that is obvious,,
A simple coat of 532nm blocking film or dichroic material CAN be added to the windscreen ..along with the MORE dangerous wavelengths 1064nm-808nm these you cannot see but can do
EXTREME damage to optical devices and retina damage...
simple tool too have is a pair of laser goggles even if you think you saw a green sparkle throw those pups on!
Retina damage is very rare anywhere,,laser show,military,lab..
It does happen though so just be safeguarded..
now mod. throw me off again!!
