A new call to Ground (info) request

[Dirk98 354]

Could you add a call to Ground:

<Ground> <SB435> is holding short Rwy <> - as it is now if Ground doesn't hand me over to Tower I have to call: <Ground> <SB435> is ready for take off Rwy <>... which doesn't sound nice operationally.

 

Thanks.

Dirk,

I believe the only time I don't get Ground to hand me over is if I take the wrong route to the HS or take an early ramp (midfiled).  There is a grammar rule "ready for departure runway <Runway>" but that's not much better I guess.
