Looks like standard taxiing to me; a bit of back pressure on the yoke (or is it a stick in one of these?) to keep the tail low and the prop tips away from accidentally striking the ground if you have to brake a bit suddenly.

Interesting and great study shot! Looks like full up elevator deflection, rolled down side window…very squat on the gear. No flaps…either a very hot landing or spritely takeoff? any input?

Boscombe Down? I remember seeing her there, but not how she was painted… anyone seen my slippers?
