2) Gemini
3) American Eagle
4) Raging Bull

I've got two I can recall off the top of my own head, without looking at stats. It seems like they give you just tons of air time.

Nitro at SF Great Adventure
Jackrabbit at Kennywood Park.

Voyage does have a ton of airtime. The NEW Texas Giant is pretty sweet for air as well. The old standby is Apollo's Chariot, which is an airtime machine. Finally, there's a stretch after the first hill and turn on the Titan where you are out of your seat for what feels like an eternity.

Those are probably my favorites...

Raging Bull is a great smooth coaster with lots of airtime

For me, I think Diamondback at Kings Island has the most airtime. I've been on The Voyage and all of the Cedar Point coasters, and I'd still say Dback as my first choice.

Voyage and Apollo's Chariot

I had my first rides on Quassy's Wooden Warrior last weekend (I've been trying to post a trip report but have been unsuccessful) The ride, while obviously not a mega-coaster, is a heckuva lotta fun and packs its less-than-a-minute ride time with some serious air.

Other airtime filled rides:

El Toro
Nitro
Ravine Flyer II
Superman at SF America
Voyage (although I doubt the figures above, it's got quite a bit as I remember..but it was four years ago I rode)
Intimidator (Carowinds)
Magnum

Others mentioned Apollo's Chariot and Raging Bull..I got next to nothing on those rides as far as airtime goes.

Apollo's Chariot and Raging Bull are my favorite for air time.

Diamondback at Kings Island has the most airtime I've experianced.

At Kennywood Sky Rocket has great airtime and the Jack Rabbit airtime while not that long is insane with lots of room for lift on the double dip.

I forgot about Maverick at Cedar Point... Definitely get some lift out of your seat on this coaster, too!

From Dave Stroem

Not in any particular order

Diamonback at KI
Texas Giant at SFOT
El Toro at SFGAdv
Voyage at Holiday World

But the winner is
Bizzaro at SFNE
I have never felt such intense G-Forces and so much of it in one coaster.

Of course on some days a coaster may not produce as much air as on other days. Your body size or seat choice can also make a big difference.

The New Texas Giant is airtime heaven.
