The major surviving parts of the de Havilland Hornet are mostly shown in the following photos. This page will be updated as, and when images become available. It is intended to form a photo archive here for others to reference. A rear engine nacelle is in store with the Mosquito Museum, and a third rear fuselage section is known to exist, but photos are currently un-available for both of these relics. All components shown here are owned by the de Havilland Aircraft Heritage Centre (DHAHC), or part of private collections.

Merlin 134 Engine from Sea Hornet PR.22 VW937. This engine has been purchased by the Mosquito Aircraft Museum, with equal donations coming supporters of the DH Hornet project and a grant from the PRISM fund. From March 2008 this can be seen on display in the Halford engine collection within the DHAHC at Salisbury Hall, Herts. It is the worlds most complete Sea Hornet merlin engine, with most of its cowlings and all engine ancilliaries present. (DHAHC collection)
