It's been quite a while since these were put in and I'm betting transport was not provided simply becasue they fought on the ground only. The Icon for the aircraft is in the game however but only in Romanian markings and they were used by the Romanians as para transports

Apprently they saw plenty of (ground-) action during the "Phoney War" but not much after May 1940.
Still, would be a nice "what-if" unit to have. :-)
They used both the Potez 652 and the Farmann 224:

So, no air insertions were done during the war?during the phoney war(SITZKRIEG?) they were employed as infantry or commandos?
btw, i wouldnt enter a plane like this, i think walking is safer
