I think this has been covered but I have a two part question:

1. Airborne shooter releases ball after the clock expires in 4th quarter but is fouled on the way down. This would be one of the only situations where a successful basket is not allowed but two free throws are shot, correct?

2. If freethrows are being shot with no time on the clock may a time out be called?

Asssuming shot got off before cloak expired.

1. Basket counted if good. (assuming shooter is airborn)

2. If missed two free throws awarded as per above.

1. Assuming that the contact was neither intentional or flagrant, the contact is ignored and the period is over.

2. Yes, but only one timeout request can be honored.

Hold on a second...
 
Page 48 of NFHS Rulebook:

Rule 6- Section 7 DEAD BALL

Exception: The ball does not become dead until the try or tap ends, or until the airborne shooter returns to the floor, when:
…3. A foul is committed by any opponent of a player who has started a try or tap for goal (is in the act of shooting) before the foul occurred, provided time did not expire BEFORE the ball was in flight.

This will probably be controversial on this forum (and unpopular with the shooter’s team and fans), but…..

Based on the above-cited rule, I would interpret this as contact that occurred AFTER time had expired and AFTER the ball was released. Therefore, no foul, game over, unless the score was tied. Then we are going into OT.

You're missing the point, willie. The ball is dead but the airborne shooter, who is considered to be in the act of shooting, is still entitled to his FTs.

Not if the foul occured after time expired, which is how I read the first post.

Contact after time expires is nothing unless it is intentional or flagrant.

Agreed. I mistakenly thought willie was ignoring a foul prior to the horn because the shot wasn't released on time.

It's ok.... I only CAPITALIZED the word AFTER in both places. :)

HOLD THE PHONE
 
in the following sequence:
1. shot released by A1, an airborne shooter.
2. horn
3. illegal contact by B1 on the airborne shooter.
4. shooter lands

This is a shooting foul. Don't we still have to protect the shooter here? Isn't he (or she) protected until landing, even if the horn has sounded. For one, the ball isn't dead until the try ends.

Snaqwells,
In your given sequence it is obviously a foul, but that is not what is being discussed.
The sequence is:
1. A1 starts his try and jumps into the air
2. HORN sounds
3. A1 releases the ball
4. B1 contacts A1 before A1 lands

As you can see this situation is different. Since the ball is still in A1's hands when the horn sounds, the try ends at that point and the ball is dead. 6-7
The contact is also NOT a foul despite what is stated in 4-19-1 NOTE.
This is because the try ended before the release, so A1 never became an airborne shooter because the definition of that term (4-1-1) includes "a player who has released the ball on a try for goal" and that didn't happen here.

Bottom line: no try released = no airborne shooter = no foul, unless intentional or flagrant

Thanks, Nevada. I knew I had to be seeing something wrong since everyone seemed to agree with MTD. :)
