2. Hazards due to laser pointers in air traffic
In mid-2011, Rockwell Laser Industries analyzed 6,903 FAA reports from 2004 to mid March 2011
Incidents by Type (cockpit illumination, intentional exposure, eye effects & injuries)
FAA reports from 2004 to mid-March 2011. They found that the cockpit was illuminated only in about
1 875 incidents (27%)1,875 incidents (27%).
Of these, the exposure appeared intentional in about 350 incidents (19% of cockpit illuminations), defined as multiple exposures or the beam tracking the aircraft.
There were about 100 incidents (1.5% of all incidents) where eye effects or injuries were reported The RLI analysis was done

Most laser/aviation incidents involve green l lasers. During the first half of 2011, in 93% of incidents
reported to the FAA, the pilot said he or she saw a green light.
Blue light reports were less than 1% of incidents.

The beam would not have the same effect on il t’ d i i ti i id t ha pilot’s eye during an aviation incident where
the laser device is hundreds or thousands of feet away. This is because
$1) laser beams spread out over distance so the power density (irradiance) is greatly reduced,
$2) it is nearly impossible to keep a laser fixed on one area of the cockpit window, and 3) h ll bli k f 1/4 d f$3) a human naturally blinks after 1/4 second of exposure to a bright light. No, only about 20% blink or avert!
$(Of course no one should aim a laser of any power at or$(Of course, no one should aim a laser of any power at or near an aircraft, no matter how low the chance of injurious or bright-light effects.)

However, when it comes to non-injurious visual hazards a 1-watt 445 blue laser is equal to only ahazards, a 1-watt 445 blue laser is equal to only a 35 milliwatt (0.035 watt) green laser. ???
Thi th t ft i l d di t ti This means that afterimage, glare and distraction effects are only in the range of a 35 mW green laser. ??????
The reason is that the human eye is much less iti t 445 bl l li ht d tsensitive to 445 nm blue laser light, compared to
common 532 nm green laser light. and no!Said another way, a blue laser appears 29 times less
bright to the human eye than a green laser of the same power. and no!

Some details on „limit values“
It has been shown that power densities above 50 W 2 i l t t l f50 μW·cm-2, equivalent to a laser power of 20 μW, is unacceptable in the „laser free zone“ above the runway.
5 µW/cm² i e 2 μW are considered as so-called 5 µW/cm , i.e. 2 μW, are considered as so called „flight safe exposure value“ (FAA).
In our own investigations test persons were not g pwilling to participate in tests with a laser power above 30 μW and exposure durations longerabove 30 μW and exposure durations longer than 10 s.

If instead of the usual beam divergence of 1 mrad only 0.1 mrad do exist a far ranging laser pointerwould be available.
With such a laser pointer a vision pimpairment duration between 0 s and10 s would result in a range between g21.705 km and 2.475 km, namely if the exposure duration is as short as p0.25 s.

3. Summary
A real risk exists due to various laser pointers D t i i ti i t d i lik l Deterministic, i.e. permanent damage is unlikely,
but might not be excluded completely due to increasing laser powerlaser power
Nominal ocular hazard distances (NOHD) b l l t d f ti f d dican be calculated as a function of power and divergence
Non-injurious, i.e. temporary effects like glare, flash blindness after-images have been dealt with and respective zones might be designated
The reading impairment is explained as a research result in order to quantify the indirect effect associated with a laser illumination in the cockpit
Increasing laser power and application of beam expanders increase the current threat further
