Black boxes?

You know that little indestructible black box that is used on planes? Why can't they make the whole plane out of the same substance?

A number of observational comedians have expressed their view that, because the box seems to be indestructable, the substance used to make the box should be used to make the entire airplane. However, writer Douglas Adams observed that, "...because flight recorders are made out titanium and that if you made planes out of titanium rather than aluminium they’d be far too heavy to get off the ground in the first place


Spicoli
why were the ones from 9/11 missing?


King of Babylon
Because it wouldn't fly.


Laughing Libra
I was told that the material is too heavy.

Because then the airplane will be too heavy and won't be able to lift off the ground.

Because they are really not that indestructable. They are made to take the beating so that the equipment inside does not get damaged. usually the boxes themselves are pretty beat up when they find them.

seriously - could you be more unoriginal? That is the oldest/worst joke.

If you're serious - the plane would be too heavy.


Woopyalecris
old joke, not funny anymore.


timc_fla
uh, because that joke has been played out back to the 70's.
get a new rap.
like, why don't we kill a hi-jackers entire family?
Oh, that's not a joke either.


Drofsned
The black boxes aren't really indestructible. Many times they are destroyed or cannot be found.


Aztek G
The material would be to heavy to lift off of the ground.

They are. And they're not indestructible.

To the previous answer; They're named for the guy that invented or developed them, not the color.


Alterfemego
nice idea!

Let me guess your next line...."I'll be here all week, enjoy the jalapeno poppers"?

Incidentally, the black box is actually orange!

That's a good question, but how do you think you would come out if you were in a plane that was made out of the same substance the black boxes were and crashed into the ground?


basskickintime
Good ? Someone should and find a cure for cancer too.
