Griffin pointed out that there are ways to infect a machine via usb
sticks and HD's, but never said not to use them. But regardless, you
could still use the air gapped machine for only document creation and
encryption, and as a static repository for your data, and using write
once cd-r discs to export.

The OP specified using flash memory, so I assume he means usb drives
or sd cards.
