I've just downloaded the 2017 airspacefile of Germany from the DAeC website and noticed that a new airspace class has been added:

AC GSEC for glider sector.

This new airspace is recognized by SeeYou and my request is to make it work in LK8000 as well.
Many thanks.

Correct,
but GSEC is not defined in open airspace format. Glider areas used to be defined as AC W (Wave sector).
Every nation seems to define its own types.
Since GSEC starts with G these airspaces are actually loaded as airspace class G at the moment.
I will see what I can do about it.

GSEC will be supported in the next release version.

Why do I get WARNING about flying in NOFLY ZONE when flying in GSEC airspace? Is it possible to configure airspace to be allowed for gliders, and everything around it to be prohibited airspace?

Many thanks!

In Germany (and all other countries I'm aware of) glider Sectors are not open by default, it need to be opened by the ATC. If you get permission, you can turn the nofly into a fly zone.

However, if this is different in your area you can disable the warning (and/or visibility) for each airspace type separately in
Config Page 2 "Airspace"-> Warnings

How do I turn the NOFLY into a FLY zone? Is there some switch in LK8000, or I have to change something in airspace file?

Select the airspace, in the airspace details dialog there is a button FLY-IN. I'm afraid you must do that for each Glider Sector separately
If you've turned on persistent store of changes this setting will remain permanently.
