הנה שני הסברים אפשריים
בקישור לויקיפדיה בעברית אין הסבר, אבל בגרסה האנגלית יש שני הסברים אפשריים:
The black box term originated when after a meeting about the first commercial flight recorder named the "Red Egg" for its colour and shape, someone commented that, "This is a wonderful black box." Black box is more a humorous cadigan than an accurate term (the recorders are not generally black in colour as they are often intended to be spotted and recovered after incidents, nor are their operations unknown), and is almost never used within the flight safety industry.
An alternative origin of the word is from World War 2 RAF terminology. During the period 1940-1945 new electronic innovations, such as Oboe, GEE and H2S, were added to aircraft (specifically bombers) on a regular basis. The prototypes were roughly covered in hand-made metal boxes, painted black to prevent reflections. After a time any piece of "new" electronics was referred to as the "box-of-tricks" or the " black-box". An expression that made its way into post-war civil aviation and ultimately, general useage.
