In 2007 the FAA revealed the Boeing 787 had passenger Internet traffic and flight control traffic on the same network separated via software firewall.

This gives us the classic reassuring response from Boeing spokeswoman Lori Gunter :

"There are places where the networks are not touching, and there are places where they are," she said.

Oh, I don't know if they ever air gapped them fully. The FAA made them do some changes is all I know.
