First, the background image should be in jpeg format.
Secondly it should be imported at the menue: "Camera" "View" "Orth", clicking "Orth". After that a requester turns up for the backgroundpicture to be desplayed. If nothing apears, the picture is perhaps to small - if you enlarge it in AC3D you get it.

2) is there a way to cut a hole in a shape. for example making windows in the side of an object fuselage.
