Side view of a small, single-engined biplane light aircraft taxiing from left to right on a grass airfield. The plane is mostly red, with a pair of white stripes running along the body, overlaid with the white registration "G-HOON" on the rear fuselage. White text on the tail reads "Pitts", in a rather ornate font, with smaller "S-1S" text in a more normal typeface below. The rear, moving portion of the tail is painted in a red and white checkerboard pattern. The upper surfaces of the wings and horizontal stabiliser are covered in a red and white sunburst pattern. The plane's pilot can be seen through the close, blue-tinted cockpit canopy, wearing a grey cloth flying helmet. Short green grass fills the foreground, with slightly longer grass filling the background.
