No. The airborne shooter rule ends when either foot returns to the floor. 4-1-1

do I award the 3 fouls shots if the basket does not go in or take the ball out of bounds?
If Team A is not in the bonus, then Team A is awarded the ball OOB at the nearest spot, regardless of whether or not the try is successful.

If Team A is in the bonus, then A1 will shoot 1-and-1 (or 2 FTs), regardless of whether the try is successful or not.

Also if B1's contact is deemed intentional and I call an intential foul on B1 and A1's shot does not go in do I award A1 with 2 or 3 foul shots?
3 FTs, since the original try was a 3-point attempt. If the try is successful, you would score 3 points and then award 2 FTs.

I believe those rulings are true for both FED and NCAA.

In the NBA, if the try was successful and the foul was non-flagrant, you count the basket and award A2 (not A1) one FT.
I think you may have contradicted yourself in the last part of your response. If B1's contact, which is the same contact as described in the beginning of the post, is deemed intentional, then it's just 2 shots plus the ball, not 3 shots (regardless of whether the shot was successful or unsuccessful). Remember, the foul occurred after the airborn shooter landed, so it's not an intentional foul on an airborn shooter.
