DCS 2.7 "departure comms" no need for altimeter

[Jagohu]

According to IRL fighter pilots, the altimeter is NOT given upon the airborne call.
"The last thing you want is pilots looking inside the cockpit for something not very important so close to the water."

First of all my apologies for going so hard into @Jagohu's topic, But I was clearly WRONG in this case.

@Wags @NineLine @BIGNEWY After some extensive research it indeed appears that the "Altimeter" is not part of the reply by departure.. Correct phraseology would be

306 - "306, Airborne" 
Departure - "306, Departure, Radar Contact" 

I also will make sure this will get updated in my manuals in future revisions... 

well done on all the latest updates... Huge step forward in carrier realism... Hopefully one day Cyclic Ops would be implemented too as that is what carrier ops is all about..
