Fighter jet nose section

Hello,

I'm working on the nose section of Jaguar fighter jet with aim to 3d print it. I have form it with T-t-splines and struggle to manage topology for the shape with the cockpit area to be flat. The problem is the form kept intersect itself at the corner of the crease. How should I fix it? F3D file Attached.

In addition, the nose section of the real aircraft has a step (highlighted in blue) before it transition to the corner (highlighted in red) that connect with the front windshield. What would be the best approach for forming this shape? Thank you in advance. Any suggestions of tutorials would be really appreciated. And yes, I'm a newbie to fusion 360.

If Sweep is not suitable, a few more profiles, will allow for a Loft.

 

Might help....
