How long of a pulse is required to disable an insect? How long to be a danger to airplane pilots?


Also, can we get a laser that's collimated badly enough that the beam is ~harmless at distances where an aircraft can be, while still collimated well enough to fry the insect? (In the spirit of "the best radiation shield is r squared".)
