For SDK 3.0

(http://bbs.51pda.cn/simple/?t4861.html)

#import unistd.h
#include dlfcn.h
#include stdio.h

typedef int (*airType)();
static int (*real_air)() = NULL;

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{

int status = 0;
void *libHandle = dlopen("/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/CoreTelephony.framework/CoreTelephony", RTLD_LAZY);
real_air = (airType)dlsym(libHandle, "CTPowerGetAirplaneMode");

if(! real_air)
{
printf("something wrong");
}
else
{
status = real_air();
}

printf("%d",status);

return status;
}

This answers the second part of the question - how to tell what type of network the user is on (Wifi or 3g/edge). It uses the Reachability code from Apple. Put this in your didFinishLaunchingWithOptions method in your app delegate:

Reachability *curReach = [Reachability reachabilityWithHostName: @"www.apple.com"];
NetworkStatus netStatus = [curReach currentReachabilityStatus];
switch (netStatus)
{
    case NotReachable:
    {
        UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Network Status" message:@"Please note: Network access is required to retrieve images." delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:nil otherButtonTitles:@"OK", nil];
        [alert show];
        [alert release];
        break;
    }
    case ReachableViaWiFi:
    case ReachableViaWWAN:
    {
        break;
    }
}

If you just want show notification, when user is in airplane mode, then it's enough to enable SBUsesNetwork property in your app's plist file. When your code is using network, user is prompted to turn off Airplane mode automatically.

See e.g. this post.

I'm not sure if you can check specifically for airplane mode but the reachability example from the iphone adc website enables you to check if the iphone has access to the internet.
