2)My question to esteemed members: Shooter becomes airborne, ball is released on a try, horn sounds after release, ball is blocked by defender into the bleachers, making it definite it will not go in, airborne shooter is then fouled, not intentional or flagrant, by a secondary defender before landing. What's the call? Is the ball dead when it is definite that the shot will not be successful, or does the ball remain live until the airborne shooter lands? Per my usual modus operandi, citation please.
1) You sure? That sounds like it might be a myth to me. The ball is dead when it either goes through the basket or it is certain that the try will not be good. Whether the shooter was airborne or not when the try is good/no good is irrelevant to the status of the ball.

2) That answers #2 also. The call is a personal foul on the airborne shooter. The illegal contact does not have to be intentional or flagrant. Whether the ball is dead or not is irrelevant also. The illegal contact just has to occur before the airborne shooter lands( one foot).

Rules 4-42-4, 6-7-6 & 6-7-7 + EXCEPTIONS a & c, 4-19-1 + NOTE. Per my usual modus operandi, why didn't you look the damn rules up yourself?
