No doubt referring to the signing of the Royal Warrant establishing the RFC 13 April 1912. Pity they couldn't tell the diference re RFC/RAF.
The foundation date for the RAF was not particularly auspicious though - 1 April 1918.

The hardback - well, the one sitting six feet away from me at the moment - has a different subtitle, the more accurate 'One hundred years of British aerial warfare'. Very odd.
