I am trying to implement the advice in the very helpful Allies setup spreadsheet to 'Pay the 9 PP ("within command"), draw 6 A/C from the pool, transfer (D.VI.A) to Tarakan (Begin to extract BF troops from Miri & Brunei)'. I haven't been able to find a command to transfer either the Miri or Brunai base forces to that will allow the air transport unit to pick them up.

I would not bother, I believe the unit is restricted and you can spend the PP for something else.

The base force is not restricted. But, Brunei has an airfield size of 0, so only float planes can pick them up. But D.VI.A is a transport aircraft, not a float plane patrol aircraft. You will need to transfer in a Do 24K-1 equiped unit instead. I would also tell you to use Balikpapan instead of Tarakan. To pick up the base force, open the air unit, click on supply transport, select a destination of Brunei, then click on pickup troops and it should select the only unit there, the No. 107 BF(?).
