Whisk eggs in second wide, shallow dish; whisk flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt in third wide, shallow dish. Dip shrimp in flour mixture to coat, then dip in eggs, allowing excess to drip off, then in breadcrumb mixture to coat, pressing lightly so breadcrumbs adhere; place on rimmed baking pan and spray both sides with cooking spray. In 2 batches, air fry shrimp 8 minutes or until golden brown and shrimp turn opaque throughout, turning once. Makes about 16 shrimp.
