if I'm VFR I'd say:
"such-and-such ready for take-off, departing north-west (or whatever),
and if I'm IFR I'd say: "such-and-such ready for take-off, IFR to XXX".


That's what I use; no confusion about it.


Same here.

On the VFR side, it also helps the controller to know which way you're
planning to go without waiting to be asked.


When VFR, I request something like "...Columbia six Mike Kelo, three one
(runway), ready for takeoff, request southeast departure...", or I just go
with the flow.
