HD 184279 (V1294 Aql) has presented in the past an emission spectrum on the first terms of the Balmer series, and shell absorptions on the hydrogen and neutral helium lines. Their variations have been reported by Merrill (1952), Merrill and Lowen (1953) and Svolopoulos (1975). Ballereau and Hubert-Delplace (1982) evidenced long-term V/R variations with an amplitude of ∼100 km s-1. Short-term photometric variations are irregular (Tempesti and Patriarca, 1976), while long-term variations are correlated with radial velocity (RV) of shell lines (Horn et al., 1982). Ballereau and Chauville (in preparation) extended the spectroscopic observations until 1984 and confirmed the pseudo-periodic variations, the last half-period ranging over 3.4 years (April 1, 1980-August 1, 1983).
