Opion (c) The answer is Orange.

The color of an aircraft’s black box is Orange.

Explanation:

• The term ‘black box' is a misnomer as it does not  match with the colour specified.
• The actual colour of black box is generally a vibrant orange or  some other colour  similar to fluorescent ‘rescue' colour.
• It is because that it may be easily seen, so that it is standing out vibrantly amongst any wreckage & earth debris when some mishap happens.
• This bright colour helps to find the box so that the data can be  & retrieved quickly for analysis.
• It is essentially an armored box, which is mainly protecting all the flight data & cockpit voice recordings.
• It starts working the moment the flight takes off and the sooner some thing went wrong the cause can be properly determined.
