Whilst I tend to agree about losing the data, I am a bit perplexed as to how the emergency services helicopters suddenly won't be able to find a hospital.
The locations ust be erased from the databases that are loaded into the GPS or FMC if they are not "approved" data. "Approved" data we are told must meet certain standards under threat of new criminal penalties for the originator.

That means that the locations will probably have to be manually loaded as user waypoints, probably by the pilot, using data out of an old paper copy of ERSA. How safe is that?
