1940s UK Radio

Post by Forrest »

Your Comms are silent. The only sound you hear, the steady breathing of your trusty twin-engine steed galloping you through the clouds. Far off into the fading distance below, a faceless clump of civilization slowly streams by. It is in this moment you realize...you are alone.

These are times made for '1940s UK Radio'! Broadcast from tall metal beams towering over the British Isle to the west, 'snip-ets' of hope float across the Channel and right into your cockpit. From Garland to Bing; from Dinah to 'King'. Even vital news and inspiration from the Prime Minister himself. Their words, their song will keep your spirits high as you do your terrible duty in the name of freedom.

[BONUS: This free Station includes 26 episodes of the famed radio broadcast of (wait for it...): 'THE DAM-BUSTERS!']

Many a late and lonely night has been spent lining up the bombsight...with the voice of Guy Gibson (well, an actor playing him) echoing through the speakers. Great company for those quiet solo flights.

I love it. Use it at work a lot. Freaks some people out hearing such ancient music coming from my system. Old suthurn rocker here ya know.
