Results are reported of a campaign of simultaneous observations of the H-alpha lines of HR 5999 and HD 163296 in a study of the stellar wind shapes of very young stars. The H-alpha lines were observed with EXOSAT instrumentation and a ground-based spectrograph equipped with a Reticon. Long-term variations in HD 163296 included the disappearance of significant blue absorption features and the lack of a nebulosity. The profile was classified with the type I or II P Cygni profile with variations which could have come, it is suggested, from a spherically expanding thin shell, a uniform atmosphere experiencing differential inner and outer rotations, a chromosphere surrounded by a cool, decelerating wind, or a cool, expanding envelope surrounding a hot region containing high velocity turbulence.
