Had someone zapping a l@ser at one of our aircraft this evening. Have just debriefed our pilot.
Green l@ser flashing into cockpit just after take-off from Oxford Airport.
Unluckily for the tw
t who was doing it - the guy flying our aircraft lives locally and knew exactly what area the beam was coming from. He reported the incident to Oxford Approach who passed it on to the Police who have just arrested a 12 year old boy. Another aircraft also reported l@ser activity just after we'd left the circuit.
This is the second l@ser incident this week. On Monday someone on the ground was shining a beam into the cockpit overhead Twyford at 2000ft.
Worrying.
