I fly out of an uncontrolled airport on the cut out of Class C airspace.
Once airborne beneath 1200 feet I contact Approach.
"XXX Approach, Skyhawk 123, departed xyz at 500 feet, enroute to ZZZ request
flight following"
This is one transmission. Hangar talk tells me that is not necessary to give
the whole spiel at once.
Some of the FAA seminars that I attended with some approach people in
attendance,at busy airports request one transmissions.
Many times in the air I hear "XXX approach, Skyhawk 123, request"
Approach comes back with say request,
Any comments from controllers?
