Allies Resurgent Sicily question

How can Ponte Olivo be taken in 3 turns? I imagine paratroopers are involved, but I cannot figure out how to involve them so quickly from the start of the scenario. Any help much appreciated.

There is an airfield in the bottom right corner of the map.
Deploy your paras here during deployment phase, change transport to air and next place this unit in a proper hex, not far from Ponte Olivo.

Deployment Stage: Paratroop put on the air base in bottom right.
Turn 1: Paratroop boards plane. Plane doesn't move.
Turn 2: Plane moves about 9 squares.
Turn 3: Plane moves its maximum but nowhere near Ponte Olivo. Mission fails.
I don't see how I can "place this unit in a proper hex". Help!

You have to make all these things during deployment stage, before you start first turn.

That worked! I've played about 1000 hours of this series and never realized I could do all that during deployment. Many thanks.
