It is known to use a rigid cone to provide stability to a body being towed by an aircraft. However, such cones are useful over a limited range of speeds. The invention provides a drag-producing aerodynamic device in which the cross-sectional area of the structure producing drag is variable. The cross-sectional area of the structure producing drag decreases as the towing speed, and hence the dynamic air pressure acting on the structure producing drag, increases and vice versa.
