Shrinking fleet by I think 30 but the fleet is 6 years newer on avg compared to DL and about 8 months newer than UAL. AA still will have 930ish aircraft. Plus look at the WB comparison between AA and Delta, AA has about 40 or so more 777 and they are taking delivery of 12 787's this year.
Point is all 3 Legacies are good in their own way. It just depends on what you personally are going for, domicile, aircraft, number of retirees ahead of you, pay or contract. Contracts and CEO's come and go in a 30 year career.
Anyone getting hired now at the Legacies will have a great career.
