Eliminate any wrinkles you find in the covering by shrinking
them away with a low temperature setting on a heat gun,
then apply pressure to the area with a covering iron and a
hot sock. This will securely bond the covering to the wood
so the wrinkles will be less likely to reappear in the future.

Several times during construction we refer to the “top” or
“bottom” of the model or a part of the model. It is understood
that the “top” or “bottom” of the model is as it would be when
the airplane is right side up and will be referred to as the
“top” even if the model is being worked on upside-down.
