It's really not a big secret, there will be large RJs however it won't be enough to replace all the aircraft being retired. The overall size of Eagle will shrink but the company isn't being dissolved.

Exactly, Eagle will shrink to probably a 1,000 pilot group. We are to big, but we still be around.

My guess is that is going to be all the new hires after OCt 2011 and however we can hire in the next 5 to 10 years.

You could not be more wrong.

Constantly whining is not being a realist.

Telling the truth is not whining. Do you deny that eagle is shrinking? Do you deny that it is tough to get hired at a legacy? Those are really the only claims I've made.

Eagle will shrink 15-18% for a few years. Then grow again. AA will soon take over all pilot hiring and new hires will be assigned to AE. There will be a much more direct pathway from Eagle to AA as well, (think bid through program) These changes alone will cause junior FO's from other regionals to bail and go to Eagle.
Delta will follow suit on their wholly owned. The outsource vendors like RAH and MESA will have no such direct pathways to the mainline and will shrink and be the victims of market consolidation.
The fleet plan for eagle is roughly 170 new planes. To be announced once a few more senior folks are scared into transferring to AA
