If he/she gathers in the air, he/she can land on one foot which then becomes the pivot foot, and then step onto the other foot and jump up to shoot or pass. The rule isn't defined in terms of the number of steps.
A better way to describe travel/no-travel questions is with regard to the pivot foot. The whole question is laid out in relation to when the pivot foot is established, and which foot is the pivot. When you know which foot is the pivot, and when everything else happened in relation to that, you've got it made!
