BlueBee Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Another one : If "black box" of a plane never gets damaged, then why isn't the whole plane made out of that stuff?? Makes sense! :hmmm: Firstly, the material is WAY too expensive to be economical. I mean, if the average passenger had the option, fly on a regular airplane or fly on the black-box-material airplane, but the black-box-material airplane will cause $2,000 more for a 1 hour flight, people will choose the regular plane every time. This is because airplanes have a VERY good safety record, without needing stronger materials. Considering the actual costs associated with airlines, $2,000 more for a 1 hour flight is probably a low-ball estimate. Secondly, the plane would likely become too heavy to fly. Not only that, but we have to consider the runways and taxiways. Pavement, even at major international airports, can only support so much weight. Engineers can build wheel that are very strong, such that the A380 could sit on just three tires. But the amount of force exerted by each wheel would crumble the pavement beneath... so the weight is spread out across 22 wheels instead. Can you imagine how many tires would be needed to support the black-box airplane? That's assuming the weight can be distributed enough. Thirdly, lets consider crash dynamics. It's not how fast you are going, it's how fast you stop. If you travel at 60mph, and slam into a concrete wall, you will die. If you are travelling 200mph, but stop over the course of 500m, you will be just fine. Same deal with an airplane. On crash landing, if the airplane were made out of indestructible material, the airplane would absorb very little impact, and your body will have to take the full slam of the crash. If the plane were made of lesser materials, the cargo bay or the wings would crumple and protect the occupants. This is similar to the crumple zones of a car. Unlike cars, however, the crumple zones on an airplane is the belly of the aircraft, not the front end. :hatsoff: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
