Default Re: Gliders or Paratroop transport?

Ok. Let's summ up:
1. You need a fairly unobstracted and safe landing zone near a meaningful location on the battlefield and a fairly safe route to it,
2. Must be timed correctly and
3. Must be lucky during the actual paradrop/glide landing.
which would be equivalent to:
1.The second in command of the opposing force decided to become a traitor and the flak crews joined him!
2. The operations/logistics guys actually completed all the planning and asset gathering in time!
3. The dice are loaded!

Air Ops? No way!
I'll walk the battlefield first and then
