Not good. Be advised that pointing a laser at an aircraft in flight is
highly dangerous and may be illegal. At least one person has been
arrested and charged. See these articles. I work in flight crew
training for a major aitline and this is a big safety issue at the
very least.

Interesting pictures, however I would recommend a different aiming
