Most control systems are not airgapped, because most people don't think of themselves as targets of that level of attack. Stuxnet was targeting national security infrastructure, which is much more likely to be airgapped, but your local powerplant doesn't (at present) think of themselves as national security infrastructure, so they don't take the same level of precautions.
Note: this only describes cases I'm familiar with, in the US. I bet that some countries with more experience on the receiving end of cyber-warfare (e.g. Ukraine) are better.
