For anyone considering tackling the Airfix 1/24 Mosquito:
After carefully pondering the 56-page instruction book, I decided to change the
assembly order, mainly because Step 5 involves a structure that will be easily
damaged. Here is the order I built it in (numbers refer to the Airfix assembly
step):
1-4,
6-8,
9 (except part 37L),
11 (except part 39L),
12-15,
17-24,
16,
25-27,
10 (including parts 37L and 39L),
5,
28-33,
35-37,
34,
38-42.
For Steps 42 to 143 I have followed sequence in the instructions; I am
presently stopped at 144 but have done 220-225. So far this has worked out, and
there were no points where I realised afterwards that changing the order was a mistake.
Stay tuned! Progress is being made.
