We report on the detection of four rotating massive disks in two regions of
high-mass star formation. The disks are perpendicular to known bipolar outflows
and turn out to be unstable but long lived. We infer that accretion onto the
embedded (proto)stars must proceed through the disks with rates of ~10E-2
Msun/yr.
