Me, personally, I would go for the Tiger Moth just because of the history of the plane.

Not taking anything away from the Pitts though. I've never actually tried it, which is something I am ashamed of really - I can't knock it until I have had a go in it! Whereas, I've got a few hours logged in Tiger Moths and have to say that there is nothing more beautiful than taking a Summer Evenings flight in a Tiger.

I have this feeling that if I was to attempt it in the Pitts though, I would just become a vaguely nauseous, sweating globule that is curled up in the bottom of his seat!!
