                                BILL NUMBER:S6877

TITLE OF BILL:  An act to amend the penal law, in relation to
prohibiting aiming a laser at an aircraft

PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

To prohibit the aiming of the beam of a laser at an aircraft in its
flight path, and provides that such offense will be a class E felony.

SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section 1: Amends the penal law by adding a new section 240.64 which
creates the crime of knowingly aiming a laser at an aircraft. A person
is guilty of such crime when he or she knowingly aims the beam of a
laser into airspace with the intent to track, target or interfere with
aircraft in the special aircraft jurisdiction of the United States, or
at an aircraft or in the immediate vicinity of an aircraft and such
beam exceeds the limits set by the FAA for the FAA specified laser
flight zone where the aircraft was located and a pilot in the
illuminated aircraft files a laser incident report with the FAA.

The term laser shall mean any device designed, or used to amplify
electromagnetic radiation by stimulated emission that emits a beam.

This section does not prohibit aiming a laser at an aircraft by an

authorized individual in the conduct of research and development or
flight test operations conducted by an aircraft manufacturer, the ETA,
or any other person authorized by the FAA to conduct such research and
development or flight test operations or members or elements the
United States Department of Defense or Homeland Security acting in an
official capacity or an individual in an emergency situation using a
laser to attract the attention of an aircraft for bona fide rescue
purposes, or an individual whose laser operations have been submitted
to and reviewed by the FAA.

JUSTIFICATION:

The use of lasers targeting aircrafts poses serious risk to pilots and
their passengers, particularly during critical operations such as
landings and takeoffs. At its worst, a strong laser beam flash could
cause temporary loss of vision, reduced night vision or cause damage
to the eye. A recent example of this danger occurred this past July
when a JetBlue pilot flying in route to John F. Kennedy Airport
injured his eyes when a green laser was pointed directly at the
cockpit.

Instances of laser pointers shined at aircraft carriers while in
flight have greatly increased over the last several years. According
to the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration, in 2013, there were 3,460
instances reported. This is a significant increase over the 283
instances reported in 2005. The increase in reports is likely due to a
number of factors, including: the availability of inexpensive laser
devices on the internet, higher power levels that enable laser to hit
aircraft at higher altitudes, increased pilot reporting of laser
strikes, and the introduction of green lasers, which are more easily
seen than red lasers.


LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

New bill

FISCAL IMPLICATION:

None.

EFFECTIVE DATE:

This act shall take effect on the first November next succeeding the
date on which it shall have become a law.

TITLE OF BILL:  An act to amend the penal law, in relation to
prohibiting aiming a laser at an aircraft

PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

To prohibit the aiming of the beam of a laser at an aircraft or in its
flight path, and provides that such offense will be a class A
misdemeanor.

SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section 1: Amends the penal law by adding a new section 240.64 which
creates the crime of aiming a laser at an aircraft. A person is guilty
of such crime when he or she with the intent to disrupt the safe
travel of an aircraft aims the beam of a laser into airspace with the
intent to target or interfere with aircraft in the special aircraft
jurisdiction of the United States, or at an aircraft or in the
immediate vicinity of an aircraft and such beam exceeds the limits set
by the FAA for the FAA specified laser flight zone where the aircraft
was located: and a pilot in the illuminated aircraft files a laser
incident report with the FAA.

The term laser shall mean any device designed or used to amplify
electromagnetic radiation by stimulated emission that emits a beam.

This section does not prohibit aiming a laser at an aircraft by an
authorized individual in the conduct of research and development or
flight test operations conducted by an aircraft manufacturer, the FAA,
or any other person authorized by the FAA to conduct such research and
development or flight test operations or members or elements of the
United States Department of Defense or Homeland Security acting in an
official capacity; or an individual in an emergency situation using a
laser to attract the attention of an aircraft for bona fide rescue
purposes: or an individual whose laser operations have been submitted
to and reviewed by the FAA.

JUSTIFICATION:

The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration said there were 2,836 reports
of lasers being pointed at aircraft during calendar year 2010. This is
over seven incidents every single night, and is 185% greater than
2009's figure of 1,527 reported incidents.

The increase in reports is likely due to a number of factors,
including the availability of inexpensive laser devices on the
Internet: higher power levels that enable lasers to hit aircraft at
higher altitudes: increased pilot reporting of laser strikes: and the
introduction of Green lasers, which are more easily seen than red
lasers.

The use of lasers targeting aircrafts poses serious risks to pilots
and their passengers, particularly during critical operations such as
landings and takeoffs. At its worst, a strong laser beam flash, akin
to a camera flash, could cause temporary loss of vision or reduced
night vision. Eye injuries have even been reported by some pilots.One


such example occurred on February 20th, 2011 when a Southwest Airlines
flight with more than 130 people on board was making its final
approach to the Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall
Airport. While the plane was at an altitude of about 2,000 feet,
someone on the ground aimed a laser at it, sending a bright beam into
the cockpit as the pilots were preparing to land. The aircraft arrived
safely but the pilot and co-pilot reportedly suffered eye injuries.

To date, no aircraft accidents have been attributed to lasers aimed at
cockpits, but anything that interferes with a pilot's ability to do
his or her job is a public safety matter that needs to be taken
seriously.
