Actually, I like Aerie, but in his party it might be better to drop her. 3 mage and 3 priest is a tad strong (especially on the priest side). You need Jan for the thieving skills, and with his illusionist skills and your mage skills that is plenty of wizard. The only way I would go with 3 priests in a party is if I were going with no mages whatsoever in the party. However, if you like the "heavy magic" approach of 3 mages, then probably get rid of Jaheira for Mazzy. Yes, you lose Fire Elementals and Insect Plague, but I've found by playing "all-good" parties that you really can get by just fine without them. If you really like Jaheira in the party, and want to keep Aerie, that pretty much means replacing Minsc with Mazzy. Anomen is a solid tank (especially after getting his dexterity raised), and Jaheira is pretty solid in her own right as well. And with 3 priests, that is plenty of healing to go around, so Mazzy would fit in either as an archer or as a tank.
In other words, it is your choice; I would just base it on playing style and how much you like the NPC, since ultimately it is your party to play.
