returning to my Legoland speculation I too would be absolutely amazed if their displays were not very thoroughly checked and approved by CAA and possibly other agencies.

What does intrigue me is the , no doubt informed comment, that their lasers would not represent any threat to aircraft as they wouldnt reach that kind of height. Seeing as they put on quite spectacular display leads me to ask what on earth reason would an individual have ,or be able to obtain, something much more powerful and potentially dangerous than that used in a major entertainment complex where they no doubt have competent professional people operating their system
