Wow, thats well below the brown note!

Well, actually it's around 20KHz. But of course we're talking about the EM spectrum here, so yeah - that's still really darned low. (Like 10 orders of magnitude lower than visible light!)

But if it were sound waves, then 15,000 meter waves would correspond to a note at .02 Hertz. That's not sound, that's wind!

Another idiot has struck. An incident 6 miles out from the airport apparently - what sort of height would an international flight have reached by then?

Must have been something fairly hefty I imagine, not great. Fingers crossed for the pilot it's just temporary - and for us

**Pockels** · 02-15-2016, 02:38

About 6 thousand feet I believe

Maybe it was something he ate...

I see BALPA are now calling for a total ban in the UK and for lasers to be treated as offensive weapons.
