Last time I checked 152's were a high wing type...ergo was he zapped from above? Oh...Oh...perhaps it was his right wing tip? Dammed starboard nav light strikes again!
What's wrong with flying at night?
I've flown C152's in and out of bankstown on many an occasion and have never been hit with a laser or know anyone who has. So it looks more like the media blowing thing out of proportion again.
