Mr Spoonamore might just be ever so slightly full of shit.
Air gap means no physical connection. Software can't make a network connection if there's no hardware for it to control.
Edit to get ahead of the questions: I'm aware wifi exists, my point is an air gapped machine shouldn't even have a NIC, wireless or otherwise. No NIC = no hardware for any software to make an network connection with.
USB NICs are a thing. I don't know the hardware honestly but that's actually a good thing. Def con has shown for years the security on these systems are trivial, hard recounts and audits should be common practice.
