Show current Air Space Class during flight

Hi,

Hopefully a very small functionality to implement: Show current Air Space Class during flight.
suggestions to project this:
a) replace your logo-button in a button displaying the letter of the Air Space Class currently in. (sorry :-)
b) Append it as text between brackets after the yellow line with the current postion.

This might help to become constantly aware of air space class we're flying in (although one should know upfront ofcource... a lot of organizations are working to reduce the number of infringements).


Currently it's *very* easy with SD to know what air spaces exists anywhere. for example by 'touching' the map. unfortunately, this will not work for the current location.

thanks in advance.

Robert

p.s. needless to say that I love SkyDemon! ....Even w/o the projection of current air space class ... ;-)

IMHO, one should ALWAYS know where he/she is and in which airspace class currently in. A small indication on screen can only contribute situational awareness.

kindest reg.

btw: discussion is continued in other topic (which I overlooked earlier)
