Well, how was the state when you run the command? It seems like you are
using 3G, and wifi is turned off in the menu:
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: yes
Hard blocked: no
I see no killswitch affecting 3G there. Does the computer have
integrated 3G modem?

Title:
Airplane Mode is turned on when WiFi is turned off, even though I
don't want Airplane Mode: I want to use 3G
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Package: Network properties, what ever it's called.
When turning off WiFi, Airplane mode is automatically turned on. If I
then turn off Airplane Mode WiFi is turned back on. This is especially
annoying if I'm about to connect a USB 3G-dongle for instance, whereas
I don't want to use WiFi, but I want to disable it before connecting
the dongle.
12.04 LTS. It was the same in Linux Mint 12 iirc.
