Talk:Life Flight

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Re: The name “Life Flight” was created when the service began, and all rights are owned by Memorial Hermann Healthcare System. No one may legally use the name without a license to do so from Memorial Hermann.

Is this right? There is a very big life flight in NZ that I know of. Does it mean all rights within the USA?

There's also a large one here In Portland, OR with multiple aircraft manned 24/7: http://www.lifeflight.org/ -Viper007Bond 03:09, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

And one in Nashville - http://www.mc.vanderbilt.edu/lifeflight/web/ --Allie 06:53, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

I suspect the two mentioned in the US (Memorial Hermann's trademark almost certainly doesn't include NZ) got permission, and rather easily: I'd be surprised if Memorial Hermann didn't automatically grant permission to any operator of a public air ambulance service that doesn't operate within its service area, more or less southeast Texas.
