According to a reverse image search on Google, his name is Polikarpov I-16.

Must have been a badass if the Soviets named a plane after him!

The pilot sitting in a Roland D.IIa is 44 years old, Lt. Friedrich N Güttler known as `Papa`to the other pilots in the unit

and one of the oldest fighter pilots in World War I.         

He served in Jasta Ober Ost on the eastern front. The unit later changed its name to Jasta 81.

This photo was probably taken in 1917 at the earliest. Info taken from `Roland Aircraft of WWI`by Jack Herris.

Have you noticed how he gets closer to you without moving. Creepy.
