by lasers. The requested reporting involves an immediate broadcast
notification to Air Traffic Control (ATC) when the incident occurs, as
well as a broadcast warning of the incident if the aircrew is flying in
uncontrolled airspace. In addition, the AC requests that the aircrew
supply a written report of the incident and send it by fax or email to
the Washington Operations Control Complex (WOCC) as soon as possible.
Respondents: Approximately 1,100 pilots and crewmembers.
