If the Earth is flat, the laser should be able to strike a point equal in relative elevation anywhere on the plane.

Don't even need lasers, the issue's clearly demonstrated by propagation of radio. It's why TV/Radio towers are needed & you can directly calculate how far it will go over flat terrain.

If it's round/globe the laser should move tangentially away from the surface.
