Sandman is right. You end up with a total of 8 TFs
However, you seem to want to invade in both locations at the same time.
I advise you not to !!
First, you'll be tight on air resources, as they are absolutely crucial to prevent opposing forces to build up faster than you do in the area. If that happens, then in Anzio-Gallipoli all over again.
Second, you may be lacking the transport troops to support both landings, meaning you will not be able to transport sufficient troops to reinforce your beach head, leading to the same outcome as above.
Third, if you use up all your TFs in the same time, you are basically telling your hand to the opposing player. Once all TFs are accounted for, he knows you will not be landing elsewhere, so he can commit his reserves. Threat of a second landing played a huge role historically, you should try to do the same.
And this practically means that landings 1 turn after the other is out of the question as well
And one reserve to all of the above : small, tactical landings by brigades or regiments can keep the Axis off balance, especially in Italy, where head on progress is difficult, and Axis reserves are smaller (or should be). But it's risky.
