A Christchurch man who endangered passenger aircraft with a laser pointer has been jailed for 10 weeks.
Tane Hemopo, 39, was originally charged with recklessly shining a laser light at a passenger plane, and the airport control tower, but pleaded guilty to the two new charges of causing unnecessary danger to the people aboard a Virgin Airlines passenger plane and a New Zealand Post Metroliner.
Judge Tom Gilbert said at 12.30am on April 5, Hemopo was near the Sign of the Kiwi on Summit Rd. He pointed the high powered laser at a plane that was coming in to land at Christchurch Airport.
