I was having a difficult time figuring some of the chart notations out,
until
I had reason to get a chart of a new area.  My San Antonio has only one
teeny
little corner of G airspace to 14,500.  When I obtained a Denver
sectional, I 
found the Aspen gliderport had Class E to the surface; there were
examples of
airways with different minimums; etc.  Try looking at different maps and
you 
get to see different things.
