I need information from anyone familiar with the San Antonio airspace. When departing Stinson Field (KSSF) to the north is it necessary to contact San Antonio departure before takeoff to get clearance into the Charlie airspace? KSSF is only 2 miles south of the KSAT airspace. I'm guessing the procedure would be to contact San Antonio departure to get clearance to enter their airspace then get takeoff clearance from the Stinson Field tower. Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
Tower will hand you off to SAT Approach shortly after departure from SSF. No need to contact them while on the ground.

At least, that would be my guess.
 
Also expect to be vectored around the east side of KRND if the wing is flying.
 
Just ask for flight following before takeoff, they’ll hand you off. Usually east for a few minutes, then cleared north. Great controllers.
