Abstract
From a high resolution spectrum taken with IUE, the central star of the planetary nebula IC 2149 is found to exibit a wind with edge velocity of 1440 ± 100 km s-1. Our preliminary evaluation of the associated mass loss rate gives 10-8 MO yr-1. Other planetary nebulae nuclei are studied with low resolution IUE spectra and indications are found of mass loss rates consistent with the above value.
