Man jailed 4 months for disrupting Tornado flight with laser

A British court was told that the skill of a Tornado pilot prevented a crash when a Romanian immigrant decided to point a laser at the cockpit twice as the jet approached Leuchers for landing.

The incident happened on Aug. 16 this year.

The culprit was caught after the navigator of the Tornado got a fix on the source of the intense light and passed the co-ordinates to police.

For his act, fruit-picker Radu Moldovan, was sentenced to four months of jail.
