Since 1994, the airshow has operated a temporary radio station called Farnborough International Airshow Radio. Since 2000, the radio station was managed by the nearby [[Farnborough College of Technology]]'s media department, led by broadcaster and media tutor Fred Marden with help from students. In 2016, the show was broadcast on DAB alongside FM analogue, reaching a potential audience of 3.8 million in the southeast of England. Broadcasting from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. during the nine days of the airshow, the show features highlights from the days' events, interviews, traffic updates, and competitions. It also re-broadcasts the air display commentary by Stratton Richey.
