Scale Rodel Model Cessna 182 Skylane

I've had this kit for several years and I'm attemping to build it. The fuselage is all fiberglass and the other parts are build out of wood. I have watched others build kit planes, but never tried it myself. I am confused on how to build sheet the plane wing, and building the flaps. The instructions are in German and I used google translate to translate them. I think some words are lost or something during translation. The plans show the sheeting pattern for the wing. Do I need to cut the sheeting as shown on the plans? The plans are very confusing to me, as I lack experience in building.

The wing sheeting starts with having the correct wood. How is your balsa stock?

Looks like you need 7 sheets 36 " long 4" wide edge glued and then cut the required shapes.

The sheeting came with the kit, it seems to be good quality. I noticed I did something wrong on the wing. Not sure how to correct the mistake.

How do I cut the required shapes?

I found a mistake in the top trim for the flap. The wood under the trim did not touch the trim. The plans show it flush with the trim. What should I do?
