Legacy
His unusual distinction of being 'an officer and a gentleman' in His Britannic Majesty's Royal Air Force whilst simultaneously being a member of the proletariat's Communist Party is, in reality, unlikely to be unique, but there will certainly be very few other RAF officers who have become a national Hero, whether of Yugoslavia, or any other country.
A clothing factory in Belgrade was named in his honour, as was a printing company in Omiš, a title it holds to this day. An aero club in Zemun is also named in his honour. Streets in Skopje and in Novi Sad are also named after Kluz. Before the Bosnian war, a street in Bosanska Dubica was also named after Franjo Kluz.
