This is a continuation of my previous thread which guy harris replied too..

Lot of earlier notes skipped.

Okay so this may anser some of my question. When are such packets discovered
by ethereal ?

This packet is definitely not on the WLAN. Is the packet still somewhere in
the queue when ethereal sees these packets or 

it sees the packet just before the 802.11 headers are added and the packets
are put on the wireless link.
