I took agree with Mark. Any foul involving an airborne shooter is part of the quarter in which the shot is taken. The effect of the airborne shooter rule is to extend the time that fouls on or against the airborne shooter can occur. While the rule doesn't explicitly spell it out, I beleive it to be the intent.

A1 dunks at the buzzer and is fouled hard before returning to the floor...A1 will be shooting FTs now. Fouls involving an airborne shooter are effectively treated as if they occured before the shot was released.
Yeah, OK, I buy that but show me where in the rule book
it says that. While I agree that this might be the intent,
I can show you where it explicitly says the period ends
when the try ends and the try ends when the ball goes in.
I can't find where it says to extend the period until the
airborne shooter hits the floor. Can you?
