Add crushed chips to mayo mixture in medium bowl; mix to form a thick paste. Immediately divide among fillets and spread into a smooth, even layer that covers each one from edge to edge.

Lightly coat air-fryer basket with nonstick olive oil spray. Arrange fish, paste side up, in basket and lightly coat sides with nonstick spray. Bake until fish is golden and crisp on top and flakes easily with a fork, 12–⏱️ 15 minutes. Remove basket from heat. Let fish rest ⏱️ 3 minutes, then transfer to a platter. Top with dill and squeeze some juice from lemon wedges over as desired. Serve with reserved mayo mixture alongside.
