BA's level 2 air transport can pick up heaps of units.

Unless i'm misunderstanding the question.

and AA, but they have to unload 1 at a time(which one time i think it was in the messed up AA beta, it was glitched, i had a krogoth and a few anti air kbots and freakers loaded, i went to unload, and it let off a freaker, and shot straght up into the air, and spent 5 minutes coming back down to unload another, and it shot up again, took about 20 minutes to get the krogoth off) :P

Thats true... and it also helps if you tell the unloaded units the move out so there is space for the new ones...

the good technic is to make a movement with the units when they are loaded by the plane then make different unload area ...

Note that transporting automatically removes a wait order so if you tell a unit to move into the load zone, wait, then move to a position reachable from the drop zone it will move to the load zone, wait for the transport and only start moving towards that final position after it has been transported.

Yes but you can also do so before the flight so you don't have to be there when the units are being transported.

Setting a unit to wait before transporting only conserves the command queue, the unit is still set to wait (unless im doing it wrong?)
