This is actually kind of cute, it holds him the way a cat holds a kitten: dangling limply by its neck.
So the transport finishes, my commander climbs in, and it carries him out to the front line.
He'd have to send them all at once to damage my turrets faster than I could build them. The enemy has taken a terrifying amount of the map by this point, but he's still only churning out Tech 1 tanks. My commander finishes upgrading a little early, which frees him up to help build the transport. It's tricky, but the economics of it just about work out.
That finishes around the same time the transport completes, so he hops in and flies out to the enemy's front door to build a forward base. While that's building, I upgrade the commander himself to be able to construct Tech 2 stuff. That lets me build an air transport big enough to carry him, and tough enough to survive any Tech 1 interceptors that try to bring it down. I keep my commander at home, build an air factory, and get it to Tech 2 as soon as possible.
