Only yesterday I noticed guidance issued by LVNL (Dutch ANSP) concerning Ground Frequency changes effective tomorrow stating:

"After vacating the landing runway pilots shall contact Schiphol Ground without ATC instructions (auto-QSY) immediately on the following frequencies..."

No mention of QSY in the AIP of course, although I suspect it's use will only cease when pilots and air traffickers aware of it no longer practice.

Personally, I always confirm the runway QFU lining up and refer to it as such...probably always will.

Yes, heard that many times in the past myself - presumably a practice-practice EFATO.
