RE:RE:American Airlines 125 aging A319s.....
Yes but the AA MD80s will be replaced by 737 800s in the next two years. Regardless, AA will need some smaller more efficient planes for the smaller routes. I've seen some estimates that thousands of smaller planes need to be replaced soon and there are not many in the 100 capacity to take up that demand. Boeing and Airbus are mainly focused on big jets where they make the most money.
