This document also provides a system of data disclosure deemed necessary for a regulatory agency to determine the potential safety effect of proposed outdoor laser activities upon flight operations within the defined airspace. 1.1 Purpose: The purpose of this document is to establish a standard protocol for safe co-existence of aircraft operations and various types of ground-based laser operations within the navigable airspace. It also provides a method for flight crews to report in-flight illuminations to their respective regulatory authorities.
