I for the life of me don’t understand how they catch people doing this. Does anyone have any insight on how they catch people pointing lasers at ac?

Lasers emit a high frequency light. It is easy to detect and pinpoint the source with a laser detector.

My theory is that you have to be standing in a very select number of places to be able to shine a laser at a pilot.

The pilots call it in, the airport police go to the vacant lot at the end of the runway and arrest the perp.
