Where does it say that a foul by an airborne shooter causes the ball to become dead immediately? If the airborne shooter commits a PC foul then the ball becomes dead and the goal doesn't count. Any other type of foul and the ball remains alive if it left the shooter's hand prior to the foul. Rule 6 section 7 NFHS lays out when a ball becomes dead and what the exceptions are. No where in that section does it say that a foul by an airborne shooter causes that ball to become dead.

Walter,
Rule 6.7.4 The ball becomes dead, or remains dead when a player control foul occurs.
Rule 4.19.6 A player control foul is a common foul ... by an airborne shooter.

Don't overlook "common foul" in that rule quote. An intentionan or flagrant foul would not be common. As such they are not player control fouls (by the same definition). Then it follows that 6.7.4 that is quoted doesn't apply.
