I don't believe they put decals on jets ie what if it were to come off
in-flight!!!!

They put them on Race Cars and on the jets they don't come off If you
only knew how much of a passenger plane was glued together as opposed to
riveted you might not fly. I think they also weigh less then the paint
it would take to cover the area.

Decals are indeed used on jets, I know from personal experience. They're
damn good ones too - you better make double dog sure you got it aligned
right with no wrinkles before you start stickinner on!! No second chances -
damn things are expensive.
We use an edge sealer to keep them from trying to peel over time....

Am a (ret) Airframes/Powerplant tech by trade - worked in corrosion control
several years, as I used to paint planes as well. <grin>

No decals - Mask off, and paint using epoxy polyamides!

decals...
