First off - good luck with the trip, hope you enjoy.
Would suggest that you double check with the AIP (Air Pilot, as we used to call it) to see what regulations pertain to operating into that airspace - it may well be "Prior Permission" - or certain times of day, mandatory handling - whatever.
Before you go - ask somebody (with experience) at your club/school for any local procedures, and remember that when LEAVING the place to come home - ASK SOMEBODY for local departure procedures again!!
Now - the call.... may I remind you of your last line....
Any and all advice appreciated.
The question that strikes me is "Why do you need to ask this?" Your profile says you are a licensed pilot - and, by inference, your message says that you are going to use radios in the aircraft - this would suggest that you have already done an R/T exam and had an RT licence issued....but as I am a great pro-ponent of the phrase ASK IF YOU ARE UNSURE (and you have done) - the call....
Pretty good to be fair - nice short, sharp, message then shut up - let him come back to you. Absolutely no harm in asking for RIS or joining instructions in first call - especially if you did advise the airfield of your intended arrival on the phone before you went.
Anyway - only other bits I would do is DROP the words "presently" and "maintaining" with regards to location and altitude.
Forgive the use of sarcasm here but would you consider calling the Approcah guy and say "I used to be at
location " - he knows by experience that the position you give is where you believe you are at the moment (note the word "believe"
).
Subsequent thought here - but did you never go into Class D airspace as a student, with an instructor?
Again - best of luck with the flight. Relax, enjoy, ASK. If you make a mistake - so what - you'll learn from it for next time (positive trip!!).
Tell us how it went (and what you learned).
