Leigh,
You can use KisMAC to sniff out your network packets. While I'm not
sure about the cracking within the program, you can use another (I
use Aircrack) to crack a network. No, you can't use the Airport
card, but why would you want to? I have two additional cards for
this purpose. I have an Orinoco Gold card that works great for long
distance snooping and a Linksys card (v2.6) that works great for
Packet reinjection and active attacks.

I also have some suggestions for making the guide more complete.
By sharing this, the readers of either the Kismac list or the
source forge lists can make contributions of information.
Here are come comments and questions for all to review, with
exerpts of the guide quoted for context....
AIRPORT EXTREME
Tested on Panther and Tiger, but might work on all X OSes.....
Hopefully someone could test and indicate whether this works in
Jaguar (10.2.8).
PRISM 2 & ORINOCO CARDS
...
- Panther: WirelessMac does not work in Panther. Patch the kernel
following
the instruction posted here ....
Please include link to the referenced instructions for Panther.
- Tiger: method not supported. the patch for the sf driver is not
yet ported
to Tiger.
Has anyone began to look at what it would take to port the patch?
Would the programming changes to patch it be similar or totally
different?
PRISMGT CARDS
...>Note: PrismGT based cards are increasingly difficult to find
as vendors are
silently replacing the chipset in these cards without anyway of
knowing. Try
your card before you buy it.
A list of vendors known or believed likely to be shipping Prism GT
cards would be helpful. If anyone got a PRISM GT Card please speak
up on what kind and where obtained.
USB PRISM2 DEVICES
On all Mac OSes, flash the firmware following this set of
instructions and
the Windows exe firmware patcher from
http://www.frars.org.uk/cgi-bin/render.pl?pageid=1109.
Note: Do this at own risk!
Is there a Mac based flasher, or do we really have to flash it in
Windows? Does it hurt the card if one does it repeatedly?
OTHER CHIPSETS
What are the leading chipsets used in wireless cards available for
purchase today? Which are increasing in popularity and which are
declining?
