I think your sheet layout is fine. I like to minimize the number of pages to print, but as long as you have room to trim and can identify the parts for assembly, you're doing fine.
If you want to get really anal-retentive about layout, I'll share a useful trick I learned a long time ago in an ad agency I worked in. When setting up larger parts on sheets, lay them out to print in the same orientation they will be assembled. In other words, if you're assembling a rocket with two vertical cylinders, say a first stage and second stage, make sure they have the same orientation on the sheets. Don't rotate one of the parts 90 degrees to make them fit. The reason for this is printers have a slight dimensional error in the direction the paper feeds through the printer because subtle paper slippage occurs, and the dimensions are off. It's not much, around 1-2% but if you're trying to fit parts together with some precision, such as adapters and nosecones, it is small but noticeable.
