Mossie's in South Africa after WWII

We have a Mossie hanging from the roof of the SA War Museum -Johannesburg, so not much can be seen from below.

It is known that Mossie's soon broke up in flight in the dry air hence their rapid withdrawal from flying in the SA Air Force.

No wonder too as it obviously put major stresses on the airframe at the speeds attainable.

Anyone have some specs on it ?
