Need an app that will show my local Class E extension from the ground

[dougiefresh27]

So here are two pictures. One is from Airmap and it does not show the class E extension from the ground
The other is from SkyVector which shows everything
On my apps:
AirMap, Kittyhawk and UAV Forecast
None of them indicated the class E

I don't find any settings to change this, in fact, on one of them it says Class E are shown but they are not for me.
Any other apps I should try?
But when I took off one day my DJI drone said, Hey stupid, you are in a Class E airspace! Or so to speak

Airmap doesn't show it because sUAS flights do not require authorization in Class E extensions to Class C (E3) or Class D (E4) airspace. Only surface Class E2 airspace requires authorization.

You could try foreflight. This is what it looks like on that app.

 

[dougiefresh27]

That looks like exactly what I want. But I am not able to get my app to look like that. This is what I see so far and have been unable to get it.

That doesn't look like my app at all. Maybe bc I'm using the free 30 day version?

What app are u using?

 

[dougiefresh27]

Airmap doesn't show it because sUAS flights do not require authorization in Class E extensions to Class C (E3) or Class D (E4) airspace. Only surface Class E2 airspace requires authorization.

So my area in question is: E4 – Class E Airspace Areas Designated as an Extension to a Class D or Class E Surface Area and does not require authorization it seems.

But according to Remotepilots101.com, he says Class E extensions from the surface of a Class D Dpes require ATC authorization.
So now I'm getting conflicting information.

That's incorrect - it does not.

§107.41 Operation in certain airspace.​

No person may operate a small unmanned aircraft in Class B, Class C, or Class D airspace or within the lateral boundaries of the surface area of Class E airspace designated for an airport unless that person has prior authorization from Air Traffic Control (ATC).​

This has been explained in detail by the FAA numerous times. For example:

Thank you. What I didn't understand was "within the lateral boundaries of........for an airport" A class E extension is designated for approach thus is not considered any part of the airport boundaries.
I'm pretty detail oriented and want to understand
I can pass the part 107 test if the testing centers ever open again
But I need to "understand" rather than memorize stuff.

Most helpful!
Thanks again!

That's a very "confusing read". I'm not sure I really understand that correctly.

The confusing part to me is the actual wording of part 107 rules

Agreed - that paragraph could be made much clearer, and avoid needing Powerpoint presentations to explain it.
