Thumbs up Nose section
I decided to use the printed copies I scanned as material for glue tabs. I cut them to size and glued on. Now it is a simplified glue tab method with no frames yet. Those will be added once the entire forward fuselage is assembled using the skin parts.

The extreme nose will be added last since it is made up of two parts that can't be attached now.

After each section is added, I slipped it over the framing just for dry fit ( not glued to the frame yet ).

Go aft till you get to the cockpit area.
