Say I fly VFR from ISP to FRG. It's less than two miles from the end of
ISP's Class C to the start of FRG's Class D (unless I stay below 1500 for
more than ten miles, which I'd rather not do). In a situation like this,
would the Class C controller typically 1) hand me off to the Class D
controller; 2) approve an early frequency change; or 3) neither?


FAA Order 7110.65P Air Traffic Control

Chapter 7. Visual

Section 8. Class C Service- Terminal

7-8-8. TERMINATION OF SERVICE

Unless aircraft are landing at secondary airports or have requested
termination of service while in the outer area, provide services until the
aircraft departs the associated outer area. Terminate Class C service to
aircraft landing at other than the primary airport at a sufficient distance
from the airport to allow the pilot to change to the appropriate
frequency for traffic and airport information.

PHRASEOLOGY-
CHANGE TO ADVISORY FREQUENCY APPROVED,

or

CONTACT (facility identification).
