First velocity-resolved [O I] 63/145 um maps of the Orion BN/KL outflow show broad components from dense warm postshock gas, with line ratios matching 30-40 km/s dissociative J-shocks illuminated by external UV, yielding [O I] luminosity 86.5 L_sun and mass-loss rate ~9e-3 M_sun/yr.
The Guitar Nebula requires extreme acceleration with η_acc ≳ 3/4 and traverses a dense low-ionization shell from an old supernova remnant in the pressure-driven snowplow regime.
