What is the color of the black box in a commercial airplane?

Ok, all the aviators here should know this one ... Try to answer without having to look up the solution on the internet. This is all in fun, anyway ... just a little jog of the ol' memory banks.

I'm guessing red because I would think that would be the easiest colour to find...

[Kromme]

I know it is something between red and orange but it looks more red to me than orange so i voted for red.

This is a really, really old joke.

I'm going with orange.

Time's Up

Answer: Orange


This distinct color, coupled with strips of reflective tape attached to the exterior, greatly assist people in locating the black boxes following an accident. The special color is extremely helpful when a plane lands in the water.
