I fly in an area where there are many, many wind turbines. When I approach that particular arey I am warned of pretty much every single turbine individually. That quickly becomes very annoying. I have to acknowledge the warning more than 50 times (I stopped counting at 50) in the space of less than 10 minutes. The mentioned area is located near (N 47.99 E 16.90).

‌‌‌I wonder if there ought not to be some kind of limit to the number of warnings if individual obstacles are very near eacah other.

There's got to be a better way than acknowledging each single turbine and thereby having to hit OK 50 times over the space of a couple of minutes.

Maybe after the  first warning  you‌‌ are given the option of "Acknowledge group or individual obstacle"?
Or maybe the first warning reads‌ "Multiple obsta‌cles in vicinity. Warn individually yes/no"?

You could  define a minimum‌ distance, say 0.5nm, and define the "obstacle group" as that area which containes obstacles with a spacing less than the minimum. Such a group would be highlighted as a group and acknowledged as a group.

Any other  ideas?‌
