I fancy a bit of this next year as a treat for the wife so....how do you apply for an invite? I've searched DINs, SROs etc and I can't find anything and none of the past threads on here provide any answer. Anybody know the answer?Cheers....
 
i believe it gets mentioned in sro's about 4-5 months before the event, with details of how to apply
 
I've applied 4 times and never got it. Most that I know get it after 1 attempt.....so I'm guessing there must be a bit of insider info on me or the wife that I don't know about!

How did you apply though, that's what I'm after?
 
My wife and I went in 2010 (Oberon - on my first attempt too! :PDT_Xtremez_19:). The calling notice should appear in SRO's in around Jan/Feb time with details of dates, etc. At the end of the notice, there is an application form. Basically, complete it and send to OC GD Flt/Stn Adjt. You will hear about 6 weeks later if you've been successful or not.

Honestly in nearly 2 decades I've never seen one.....

Have a chat with your GD Flt and ask them to show you the calling notice. It will be out around Jan/Feb. But it does apear in SRO's - everywhere I have been over the last 18-19 years or so has had it in so I am not sure why you have never seen them?

Because he doesn't read SROs.....just likethe majority of us (choppers like ILLBW excluded).
 
Just to bump this, the disip section at the Oxford überdump are denying all knowledge of applications, they are too busy writing parking tickets. So anybody else applied yet? Has a trawl taken place?

Thanks in advance.
