Simple. Grab it from where it hits the base stations. One of the two
big in-flight Wifi carriers in the US uses Sprint towers, I believe the
other used satellite.
They have to get back to a ground station somewhere in order to get
network access. Easy to tap it there and send it wherever you want.
Grabbing an ad-hoc signal between two endpoints in the air is probably
significantly more involved. Implementation of this is left as an
exercise for the VERY well-funded reader. ;-)
