For transport and skirmishers, the 4 engines to use are qj5, DDL7, AD8, & TGFS. The DDL7 and to a greater extent the AD8 should be used rarely: for fastest possible colonization (only when QJ5 cannot get the last w9 or 10 leg without boosters), follow-up mineral/pop transport to get a gate up ASAP, and armed boosters that escort them (splitting from colonizers at the last moment).
Colonize with QJ5 Colony Ships for planets within 49LY or 82-98LY, DDL7 CS for 50-64LY, QJ5 PVT w/ 2x FT + CM for 65-81LY, & DDL7 PVT w/ 2x FT + CM for 82-100LY. For longer trips use boosters (QJ5 SS for w7-9, QJ5 FF for w8-10) but split before colonizing. To do this just figure out the warp for the last year: 7=QJ5 CS, 8=DDL7 CS, 9=QJ5 PVT, 10=DDL7 PVT.
Don't send boosters at w10 if you can help it, instead send some out in advance position to intercept the fleet to be fuelled. With scanners (and hopefully all your ships are planet hopping each year) this will also provide some warning in case you need an armed escort booster.
Send out some FF boosters with scanners to planet hopping bottlenecks as well as staging points, and top them off with SS boosters that have the time to spare. This adds the benefits of creating remote fuel stations for your shifting Interceptor patrols and Scouts looping back for max scanner coverage to catch Wormholes and cloaked ships.
