Abstract
We present observations obtained with the Goddard High Resolution Spec trograph (GHRS) of three O-type stars: xi per (O7 III), lambda Cep (O6 Iaf) and 10 Lac (O9 V). These observations show evidence of instabili ties in the winds of all three stars, although not necessarily those e xpected from current models of structured winds.
