Ace of the Isonzo by Ivan Berryman. Scoring a handful of victories in May and June of 1917, Austro-Hungarian ace Godwin von Brumowski added steadily to his ever-increasing score on the Italian Front. But in August, with the increased Italian activity in the air in preparation for and during the 11th Battle of the Isonzo, he entered a period of extraordinary success, scoring 18 victories between 10th and 28th, most of these being scored in his favorite Hansa Brandenburg D.1 (KD) 28.69 Star-Strutter, depicted here above Plava on the banks of the Isonzo river, sending a Caudron C.IV down in flames on the early evening of the 11th, his second for the day. Brumowski's aircraft was notable for its camouflaged upper wing surfaces, a swirl pattern in olive greens that he had designed himself and which blended his plane into the green wooded foothills of the Southern Austrian Alps, North of his base at Sesana, outside of Trieste. |
Tribute to Austro-Hungarian Ace Raoul Stojsavljevic by Ivan Berryman. 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. |
Victory at Monte Santo by Ivan Berryman (PC) An Italian Caudron C.IV was a victory shared by Hauptmann Godwin von Brumowski and his great friend Frank Linke-Crawford above the Isonzo River, close to the ruined monastery of Monte Santo, both Austro-Hungarian pilots flying the recalcitrant Hansa-Brandenburg D.1 (KD). |
