It's a false multiple foul and both fouls carry their own penalty.

A1 will shoot 1 with the lane cleared and then it's either team A's ball at the spot of the other foul or A2 shoots FTs if they are in the bonus. 4.19.12
Agreed.
Guys,
You seem to be assuming that the foul on the airborne shooter occurred first. Why? The fact that the off-ball foul may have happened first is a subtlety that should not be overlooked.

Additionally, that casebook play does not concern an off-ball foul so it is clear in which order the fouls occurred. Therefore, it doesn't shed too much light on this scenario.

Since there is not a specific case play, but it is clearly a false multiple foul, the only way to enforce both by rule is to shoot the shooting foul first.

FYI, in the original post A was in the bonus.
