I would expect this to be Tyrion's method.
Oh, and sure one could just sit outside and starve the Eyrie but I think the point is that the sitting army would first need to conquer the Vale and I think the analysis shows it is next to impossible to actually get in let alone sit at the bottom of Eyrie. With dragon-power the storry may be different however.
