disbanding air force

Gary Grigsby’s War in the West 1943-45 is the most ambitious and detailed computer wargame on the Western Front of World War II ever made. Starting with the Summer 1943 invasions of Sicily and Italy and proceeding through the invasions of France and the drive into Germany, War in the West brings you all the Allied campaigns in Western Europe and the capability to re-fight the Western Front according to your plan.

Yes and no. If you have less air units you have less need of airbase support troops. The excess will work their way back into your manpower pool giving you more replacements. The Luftwaffe ground units are already well represented in the game. I would probably send air units you feel you don't need to the EF. The increase in CV might let you pull a few infantry divisions west without losing much in total EF CV.

Yes, transfer to any city/town (does not have to have a base) near the east edge of the map.

I think you just try to move them to a Soviet controlled hex (IIRC, Pavel also added a way in the CR screen to transfer units).
