Default Talking to departure control

wrote:
I'm not from the US, but just wondering if you depart ifr from an
airport and tower tells you to contact departure, I know that you
check in with callsign, altitude through, and cleared altitude.

But I was wondering if the AIM recommends anywhere also to include the
departure runway and the departure airport too.

thanks, Stan


I am not sure that is necessary. They know where you are leaving from,
they just need to calibrate your altitude (alt passing though) with what
they are seeing and confirm you are going to the correct altitude (last
assigned).
