Was painted with a high intensity blue laser this AM over French Camp, CA. Currently, the blue laser is the riskiest due to the threat of immediate eye damage. I was hit back in Feb of 2020 and now see an ophthalmologist annually to monitor for potential damage to my optic nerve.

The threat is real folks!!!

Per the contacting agency, this particular model’s output is 50,000 nw, where the typical green laser output is around 500-1000nw.

Lit the interior up like the brightest blue Christmas Tree your ever seen. We were at 6500’ and 1.5 NM offset. Guess we were ripe for the lasing.

Stay Calm and Fly On everyone.
