I found this article at autospeed.com and thought you might be interested in reading it: 'Inside the Black Box' - How Flight Data Recorders can live through aircraft crashes. Following all large aircraft crashes a question is always immediately heard - "Have they found the Black Box?" For it's the Black Box which very often provides the definitive clues as to what went wrong. So just what do these incredible Black Boxes consist of? How can they retain their recorded information when being subjected to an impact the equivalent of a deceleration from 450 km/h to a standstill - in just 45cm? How do they survive through those fierce jet-fuelled fires that burn for hours, hot enough to soften steel? How can they still work after being plunged into the depths of the ocean, sometimes ending up literally kilometres under water? You can read the article at: http://www.autospeed.com/A_1227/cms/article.html
