Abstract
Results of a spectroscopic investigation of central stars of old planetary nebulae (PNe) are reported. The evolutionary status of the central stars is discussed and it is shown that most are in good agreement with standard post-AGB evolution, but some are best explained as descendents from the first RGB after binary interaction. The distance scale of PNe is discussed.
