Post-flare loops were observed on June 26, 1992 in the Hα line with the Multichannel Subtractive Double-Pass spectrograph (MSDP) on Pic-du-Midi and with the Swedish telescope on La Palma. The highly dynamic loops are inhomogeneous (blobs). The cool loops were observed 10 12 hours after the X 3.9 class flare which had a maximum on June 25 at 20∶11 UT. From 2D images obtained with the MSDP on June 26 we derive Hα intensities and Doppler velocities of the loop plasma. Using a geometrical reconstruction technique we show that these loops are mainly perpendicular to the solar surface and have the shape of a dipole magnetic configuration. We derive the bulk-flow velocities along the loop as a function of height using the Doppler velocities and the results from the loop reconstruction. Where the Doppler velocities are too small, we derive the bulk-flow velocities from the displacements of the falling blobs. We discuss existing deviations from free-fall velocity in the lower parts of the loops.
