Re: Question regarding military takeoff at FAA airport

i believe the phrase you're looking for is "change to departure, runway blah blah cleared for takeoff"


2. Inform all departing IFR military turboprop/turbojet aircraft (except transport and cargo types) to change to departure control frequency. If the local controller has departure frequency override, transmit urgent instructions on this frequency. If the override capability does not exist, transmit urgent instructions on the emergency frequency.
PHRASEOLOGY-
CHANGE TO DEPARTURE.


from 3-9-3. DEPARTURE CONTROL INSTRUCTIONS
