One of the battered and dented 'black box' flight recorders from American Airlines flight 587 lies on the ground beside a New York City police car as it is taken from the scene of the crash by an FBI agent

I noted the 2 black boxes were battered and BLACK. While reading a thread on this site re the BLACK BOXES from NYC on Sept 11..someone posted a link showing the NEW BLACK BOXES in use since 1991 or so... problem they were Bright Orange and Cylindical in shape...Anyone recall the link? Was the the orange box inside the black one shown in the photo above or are we being deceived?

The first box yesterday removed by FBI also was black, and they took it off in a small car like a Chevy Chevette, didnt look like a FBI car to me. Did anyone else notice this?? Anyone have the anwser to this?????????

"Black boxes" ARE BRIGHT ORANGE. The ones pictured in this article are NOT orange. The car is a NYPD Police car, however. This is a strange thing. . .
