We wanted to take a moment to check in and let you know how things are going here at Sky Blue Radio and to say thank you. Simply put, it's been a really good year, and that's because of you.
A Big Year for Our Community
This past year, more than 4.7 million listeners tuned in to Sky Blue Radio from all over the world. Last year, that number was 2.3 million, so seeing our audience grow like this has been both exciting and humbling.
Whether you're listening while flying a long virtual leg, planning a route, working on a repaint, or just relaxing at home, every listener matters to us.
Built by People Who Love Radio and Aviation
Sky Blue Radio is a nonprofit organization run entirely by volunteers. Our DJs, producers, and behind-the-scenes team give their time simply because they love radio, aviation, and the community that has grown around both.
Many of our shows are created with pilots, aviation enthusiasts, and flight simmers in mind. We know Sky Blue Radio is often playing in the background of cockpits, simulators, and late-night flight planning sessions, and that's something we're incredibly proud of.
Celebrating 19 Years
This year, Sky Blue Radio turns 19 years old, which still feels a little unreal. What started as a small idea has grown into a global community of listeners who share a love for music and aviation.
We'll be celebrating our birthday May 7th through May 10th with special programming and events throughout the weekend. If Sky Blue Radio has ever kept you company on a long flight or during a late-night sim session, we'd love to have you celebrate with us.
Reaching New Aviation Audiences
We're also excited to share a new partnership with AeroMexico Virtual Airlines, an IVAO virtual airline. They're releasing a new Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) for their pilots that will include access to Sky Blue Radio while they fly.
Partnerships like this help us reach more flight simmers and virtual pilots around the world, and help keep Sky Blue Radio connected to the aviation community that's supported us for so long.
How You Can Support Sky Blue Radio
Because Sky Blue Radio is a nonprofit, community-supported station, listener support truly makes a difference. If you'd like to help us keep the music playing and the servers running, here are a few easy ways to support us:
Listen and share. Telling a friend, squadron, VA, or fellow simmer about Sky Blue Radio helps more than you might think.
Get involved. We're always happy to hear from listeners who want to contribute, whether that's through shows, events, or behind-the-scenes help.
Support our sponsors and partners. They help keep Sky Blue Radio sustainable and growing.
Consider donating. Even small contributions help cover streaming, licensing, and infrastructure costs and go directly back into the station.
Every bit of support, big or small, helps keep Sky Blue Radio flying.
Thank You for Being Part of This
Whether you've been listening for years or just discovered us on your latest virtual flight, thank you for being part of the Sky Blue Radio community. We're proud of where we are, excited about where we're going, and grateful you're along for the journey.
Blue skies and smooth flights,

The Sky Blue Radio Team
