Sky Blue Radio

If you read the AVSIM news this morning,you would have learned that the old IFC Radio has been replaced with Sky Blue Radio!If you have flown on a airliner recently,you would see there is a radio in the seat.This is essentially the same concept,In Flight Entertainment. It is pretty much the same as IFC Radio,except that is a live DJ until 8 Zulu time! This station is dedicated to FS Fans everywhere.You can request Songs,and you can listen to it while flying! You can listen to it through I tunes,or you can use there application Wee Tune Beestie available as a download at the site.Unfortunately,you have to have a account,which gains you access to the forums,and various other things. If you don't want a account,you can just listen to the stream via Itunes,winamp and Real Audio.But I Recommend getting an account to get at Wee Tune Beestie because it pauses the stream when ATC Calls! So,your probably asking,how does this work? Well it's simple! All you must to do is install this programme,and set your COM2 Radio in your plane to 123.45.This es excellent and an alternate to what i do now,Listen to I tunes with the sound off.You can pay them a visit at http://www.skyblueradio.com/ or in the aviation links bar on the side of the front page under Sky Blue Radio.We hope for blue skies for Sky Blue Radio in the future.
