Spectra of the old nova V603 Aql taken with the HST-GHRS did not reveal resonance doublet absorption components arising in material ejected in the 1918 outburst. However absorption components, probably produced by a disk wind, were observed, though most line emission probably comes from regions associated with an accretion disk. Most strikingly, dramatic line profile variations on time-scales of not much more than 10 m were seen.
