"WR" I guess you could try that but you wouldn't being doing that until ya got zapped in the first place.
I got zapped big time a few years ago coming in to land at EN one evening (obviously). I was hand flying it when I was blinded temp even to the point where I managed to get 'george' back on & tell the twr I needed to maintain hdg & Alt for a minute or so as I couldn't see sh1t !!!
Dangerous bastards these people. It's becoming more & more prevalent these days even to the point that a laser event is recorded on the ATIS as being reported. What do you do? Our laws are way too soft & that being the case it's an un-fixable situation, just stay alert & don't look out the side windows too much during a turn, the most venerable time.
