Panan, once you press the icon "Manage Connections"

You should see at the top "Turn All Connections Off"
and beneath that check boxes for Mobile Network and for Bluetooth.

You can highlight and click on "Turn All Connections Off" or click on the marked check box for Mobile Network.

SO, from the screen you described above, you went one screen too far.

Now, on flight day, you've boarded the craft, made the last phone call, and the Captain or Flight Attendant has asked that all passengers turn off electronic, blah blah devices. You will turn OFF your Mobile Network as above, OR, Turn All connections Off, per the above. THEN, you will press AND hold the RED end call key. Your device will alert you that it is turning off (and might even tell you when it is turning back on for an alarm or the such.

Your device is off.

Once in the air, and after you are instructed that you can use portable electronic devices, you can press the red end call key once again to turn on the BlackBerry. When you do so, and it is booted up, ALL your mobile will connections will already be off.

You turn it off again to land. And back on upon landing, and at that time you will return to "Manage Connections" on the Storm, and click to check those boxes again to turn on Mobile Network.

Good luck, and ask back here if you have further questions.
