Tribute to Austro-Hungarian Ace Raoul Stojsavljevic by Ivan Berryman. [Original Painting]

Flying with Flik 34, Raoul Stojsavljevic became an Ace flying the Hansa-Brandenburg D.I when he recorded his fifth victory on 13th February 1917. He scored a further victory claiming a Farman aircraft in that April while flying with Flik 16, before joining Jagdstaffel 6 to gain experience in fighter tactics during May 1917. Returning to Flik 16, he pioneered high-speed photo reconnaissance flying a Hansa-Brandenburg D.I, while also claiming two more victories over Farman aircraft in July 1917. His final victory was claimed in a D.I in September that year. Raoul Stojsavljevic was killed in 1930 when his commercial aircraft crashed in fog.
