Default Simultaneous query : recovering fighters

Consider the following setup in a single sector:

A planet with cargo capacity for 10 fighters.
A transport vessel with cargo capacity for 100 fighters
100 fighters with full movement

Goal: To recover the 100 fighters from orbit and load them onto the transport vessel.

In a Turn Based game, you can load all 100 fighters onto the transport by repeatedly recovering the fighters, transferring to the ship and repeating. In other words:

1. Recover 10 fighters from orbit to the planet
2. Transfer 10 fighters from the planet to the ship
3. Repeat (1) and (2) nine times. (Or, do the sequence of (1) and (2) a total of ten times.)

Is there any way to do the same thing in a Simultaneous game?

(If there isn't, and you want to say that I'm cheating by doing it in a TB game, then I whole-heartedly agree. I won't do it anymore if you tell me it isn't possible in a simultaneous game.)

Thanks!
