Don't dare use them from my backyard. We're directly under the flight path 'handbrake turn' point for incoming flights from Australia. I have about 6-10 flights per night crossing overhead still pretty high up but you can hear the engine note change and first flaps go down as they start final descent and 180* turn for eastern approach.
I'd have every police chopper and probably the armed offenders squad round if I started using a laser pointer to find my way round the sky.
