Specsavers are sponsoring Radio Airbourne again this year when it returns next month on 87.7FM to entertain airshow fans in the lead up and during Eastbourne Airbourne 2010. Broadcasting 24 hours a day, brand new for this year, companies are being offered the opportunity to advertise on air or sponsor travel and weather updates, and reach an audience of thousands of listeners. Eastbourne Borough Council Cabinet Member for Tourism, Cllr Neil Stanley said �We are very excited that Radio Airbourne is returning to the Eastbourne airwaves for this year�s airshow, with lots for listeners to look forward to. From flying previews to exclusive pilot interviews, Radio Airbourne provides the ultimate guide to what�s going on in Eastbourne during its busiest week of the year and this is a great opportunity for advertisers to reach a mass audience.
