SFC TO F130
110NM radius takes in a bit of territory, and its Class E base 8500 immediately to the east of MDG.

And we regularly see NOTAMs re gliders operating in G & E up to FL245 (the base of Class A), nil transponder and normally not talking to ATC.

I would also be interested to find out if nil transponder gliders, hang gliders, gyrocopters etc. etc. can operate in class E in the U.S., particularly where it is down to SFC.
