In Switzerland there have been a number of lunatics carrying out lunar antics (sic) with 1m candela torches, just because someone has the temerity to overfly their houses. The local Stasi have taken a slightly dim view of this (dimmer than the torches unfortunately), leading to some 'wrist slapping' and 'don't do it agains'. Actually pointing out the penal servitude time should they cause the aircraft to crash focused the attention some what.
Bob,

Didn't do much... still going on, with bright lights anyhow. Nobody does anything by the looks of it. If you call the police investigating this STASI, wonder why... I reckon they would have liked to move in much harder on these characters but were told not to by those who feel there are political solutions to such problems......

Best regards
