With an omnidirectional antenna, sure. With a high-gain antenna, no. The attacker could entirely avoid the RFEye or AIRPORT-SHIELD. The attacker could pick a specific aircraft to pester, with no other aircraft able to listen.
Add some fancy voice synthesis, and it gets interesting. The attacker could clone the voice and style of the air traffic controller. The attacker could provide enough power to quiet out any other transmissions. To keep the air traffic controller incompletely aware, the attacker could provide interference (just to the tower) whenever the victim aircraft begins to transmit.
