You can't just tag on attempted murder, there has to be a basis for it. It would help if OP could post an actual link if that wasn't just an opinion. There isn't just one case out there there are dozens. The only one I can find is some fuckshit pointing the laser at air craft getting three years. In other cases they DID permanent injury to eyes.

I neglected to add "attempted" to my list. You are correct. Attempted murder applies. You simply have to prove that the accused
intentionally tried to cause the loss of life. And accident doesn't qualify. Accidentally risking someone's life has other laws against it, like negligence, and reckless endangerment.
Also, interfering with the flight of an aircraft, or it's crew, pilots' or passengers has another set of laws that can be broken dedicated for the extreme nature of the risk.
