Is the black box flight data recorder on airplanes actually black?
It is orange with white stripes, to easy the recovery process in case of an airplane crash. 'Black box' is actually an electronics term and has nothing to do with color. It is the idea of making electronics (especially avionics) as a self contained, single unit that just gets installed and plugged in. Sockets on the 'box' match terminals of a wiring harness and the 'box' typically lives on a rack or a rail. Faults or modifications to the component are dealt with by exchanging 'boxes' with another in stock, rather than doing the work in the aircraft. This reduces the downtime of the aircraft for maintenance because aircraft don't make money on the ground. Think of it as plug-and-play for aircraft. The 'black box' actually is two 'boxes': the cockpit voice recorder and the flight data recorder. The function of the first is self explanatory, the latter stores telemetric data.
