Abstract

Commercial aircraft (11) having a black box (41) comprising a flight data recorder (49) connected to suitable acquisition units (13, 14, 15) for recording information required for crash investigation purposes inside a container (43), wherein the aircraft (11) comprises a crash detection device (17); the black box (41) is installed in a suitable location for being ejected outside the aircraft in a crash event through a duct (21, 31) having its exit in a fuselage area where the ejected black box (41) would not impact on the aircraft; the aircraft (11) also comprises ejection means (23, 33), controlled by a black box ejection control unit (19) connected to said crash detection device (17), for ejecting the black box (41) through said duct (21, 31), when an impending crash is detected by said crash detection device (17).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a black box installed in an aircraft, and more particularly to a black box installed in a commercial aircraft. Background technique [0002] According to international regulations, commercial aircraft should be provided with units commonly known as black boxes (even though they are usually painted bright orange) with means for recording data about the aircraft for investigative purposes. [0003] On the one hand, the black box records the aircraft performance parameters, and on the other hand, the black box records the calls between the pilot, the ground control center, the co-pilot and other flight staff, and in certain cases the images taken by the camera. The black box stores only information corresponding to the predetermined duration of the flight (typically 30 minutes). [0004] Black boxes are supposed to be survivable after a crash and easy to locate the container so they are designed to survive impact and they...
