The two biggest issues with my current method are:

- keeping the film spread out on the transfer medium until it is applied to the hole

- adhering the edges of the patch without making the hole bigger

I can make nice looking patches at home, but those done on-site are more functional than beautiful.

I am going to try elements of the other methods described. Thanks for the tips.

One more note: rips frequently run to the balsa outline, so equip yourself with a battery cautery tool for trimming the edge in the field.
