Since the last update it's obviously not anymore possible to have the choice to see class E or not. 
I would like to have this option back, because it's not useful to see the borders of class E all the time.
The second change is, that now at all the airfields, where glider flying takes place, the symbol is present.
Up to the last version this was hidden if one had not choosen under "airspace" the slider "Sporting Activity" .
Please, give us back this opportunity, now the chart is entirely overloaded with the glider symbols.
Many thanks.
Mike

In general you will be save 3000ft AGL from a launching winch cable. So SD could automatically fade out the symbols during navigation since SD knows the height of the plane. But the glider symbols also allerts you from gliders up, around and above you in the air. So, as a precaution I prefer to see the symbols all the time.

Yepp, understood and not argue glider contact consequences and glider presense - but why SD not allow to hide them like paragliders - contact with them also not really healthy.....pls. let User decide to show/hide as he is finally in charge...

PS: posted twice above as error message after 1st post
