I've done some airplanes like this. Cut it out carefully with a razor or exacto knife, gently prefold the bends and tabs, lightly glue where you need it, too much glue will cause distortions when it dries. I suggest a glue stick, or a q-tip lightly dipped in elmers.

I can't load PFD documents or whatever. Is this just like, a blueprint with foldmarks? If so, could someone please email me a copy of it, in GIF format?

I need a blueprint of a first gen for my 3d Modelling itch.

Just another suggestion- Don't try to glue it all together at once, do it in sections. First the windows, then the hood etc...
