Can't help you with tutorials. But for any plane, take it to some altitude where you don't immediately crash and check the stall speed there. Drop flaps and gear as you would on a landing, nose up so that you maintain altitude and look at the speed when a wing or the nose drops. Add 30 km/h to that speed, and use it as a landing speed. Fly level at some altitude in the landing configuration at that speed so you get a feel for the control characteristics at that speed, and so that you know what throttle settings you need to maintain altitude. For the Mosquito at 50% fuel, try around 180 km/h with around 50% power. Should be slow enough for a decent landing, and fast enough for decent control.
