Aeroplane Crash?
Answers:
If you consider the size of the box relative to the thickness of the sides, Making a plane size box that could withstand a crash, would be unrealistic, since you wouldn't be able to take off. Same principle applies to spider web. It's one of the toughest, yet flexible material out there. I still wouldn't trust a bridge hung by giant webs.
Your avergage new 737 for example costs around $50million. A black box, costs around $50000 because of the materials involved. Now make an aircraft out of this very expensive material. UNREALISTIC!
If you'd do some research on your own before asking, you'll find that this question has been asked and answered about fifty times in the last month or two.
The answers are.
#1) The "black box" doesn't always survive the crash. Frequently the box is smashed and burned, just like the rest of the airplane. The electronic components inside the box are occassionally damaged beyond recovery.
#2) The "black box" is made from heavy steel alloys. An entire aircraft made from this material would be too heavy to fly.
and for Zanymadpilot. The box itself is cheap. It's the electronic components inside the box that are expensive.
we do make planes from the same material as the black box. they are called cruise boats. The bummer of it all is they dont fly.
It's not nice to steal jokes from comedians. Gallagher wrote that joke years ago.
