Once the CA has been applied, use the mid-points drawn on the keel and the opening for the tailwheel as references to very quickly align the bottom sheeting, before pressing and holding it down. (Remember: there is accelerator on the inside of the sheeting, so don't make actual contact until you are sure that the piece is properly aligned.)

In the pictures that follow, Tim is pressing and briefly holding the sheeting against the fuse. I found it easier working from the keel, outward; and from the rear of the fuse towards the wing. But, accelerator is involved, so one must work fast!
