The critical velocity of a body towed by a cable from an airplane (open access)

The critical velocity of a body towed by a cable from an airplane

It is sufficient to consider only the equations of motion of the towed body whereas those of the cable may be left out of consideration. The result obtained makes it possible to determine which factors affect the critical velocity and what modifications of the instrument are necessary for extending the upper limit of that velocity.
