All of the air commanders above the lowest position show that they can command more than 4 air divisions, but the game won't let me put more than 4 together. Is there a way or a cheat that would allow me to group more than 4?

This set up does not work well IMHO. I use TRP settings regardless of what I am playing. That is:

Go into you hio2 folder and find the db folder, in which is a file that is named misc.txt.

Open this file using notepad and change (my recommendation for balance)

air marshal leads 5 squadron's, with the number the going down 4, 3, 2. for each lower level of what a air leader can lead.

Then change the max size of air stack to 5.

Save as, and overwrite.

The ranks matter more in the air when multiple stacks may be fighting in the same province. I typically mass my TAC groups so that I have 12-16 TAC attacking the same spot. That's where your higher ranked air generals come into play.
