In the para deployment screen hit the "T" key to prompt the turn enter command..

I believe the manual says you must plot a drop hex and then cancel that plot, and THEN hit the 'T' key to prompt a new delay.

I haven't tried M4s method.

This can be done with artillery barrages, also. Sometimes, like at the beginning of a new game, that delayed artillery can be really handy. ;)

On a related issue;

Is it in any way possible to call in paratroopers as reinforcements (F4) during a battle, or does the AUX forces have to enter at the reinforcements hexes?
