Can you be a little more specific?  Out the air gap under the sink?  Out the door, float, etc?

Anytime you have water spraying out the airgap, the problem is a plugged hose from airgap down to disposal dishwasher drain stub or sink tail pipe dishwasher drain stub.

If you have a garbage disposal the most common place to plug up is right at the disposal.

Just take that big hose off and clean it and the drain stub out real good.

If you have just replaced the disposal by anychance someone may have forgot to punch out the dishwasher drain stub plug.

10-4 to Willie.  If the air gap is the location of the leak, it is not the DW fault.  It is pumping the water out as designed.

I'm with Budget on this one.  I bet we've got a new disposal and failed to pop the plug.  Seen it many-many times.
