Select F10, left click on airbase hex, in the unit bar a list of the airgroups will appear, left click to the left of the name to select (counter will appear to show selected) right click on destination hex.

Did you try the Air Transfer mode? For me when in that mode it shows the air units at each base - I then just click on the base, select the unit(s) to move on the right and click on the base I want to move them to.

As long as you are in a valid depot location, click on the place name at the top right and that will open a window that allows you to create a depot, air base, etc.

Depots can only be created in named locations and airbase hexes connected to a working rail or a port.
In the Gen Info Box (top right corner) left click on the location name - the Location Detail Screen will appear.
Left click on CREATE DEPOT at the top of the right hand column.

Red - you should remember to add that the named locations and airbase hexes must also be on a functional rail line connected to a supply source before you can create a depot.
