Comments by "Sar Jim" (@sarjim4381) on "Stockholm Mosquitos - Secret WW2 British Airways Flights" video.
De Havilland was working on a duralumin version of the Hornet, the successor ot the Mosquito, at the end of the war. The engineering calculations showed it would have been the fastest piston engine aircraft in the world at the time with a top speed of about 550 mph. The work was overtaken b De Havilland's own Vampire jet fighter and never got into the prototype phase. Still, not bad for an aircraft that could trace it's roots back to 1938.
