Just try it.
These decals are a bit different, but follow the manual and with a bit of experience you will get used to it.
I do not know your scale, but also in the smaller 1/48 scale I cutted decals for the whole wing in pieces. If I uses the complete lozenge sheets (independent from a kit) then I put stripes on, same structure of the fabric of the original plane. Those stripes can be handled easily.

I suggest to look around in this board in "Under Construction" and you will find a lot of reports with tips.

Cheers,
Frank
