I know a lot of people think it's due to the Air not having enough RAM, but I personally don't think that is the case. I think it's more likely a software issue. My next step is going to be a clean install, I'm not going to restore from a backup this time. If that doesn't solve it, I'll have to go into the Apple store and see what they say.
Both the Air and mini Retina have 1GB of RAM. The A7 is clocked at 1.4GHz on the Air and 1.3GHz on the mini Retina and iPhone 5S. I suspect there is some other issue rather than RAM size causing the Airs to crash. Perhaps it is some other hardware issue, maybe even a faulty component. The mini Retinas seem to be rock solid stable whereas the Airs crash a lot.
