Yes.

In reality it changes. For a while I heard they were every month, then we didn't see one for a few months. Generally I've heard several a year.
There's a vacancy bid rolling now. Didn't you get the HI6?

It's the same pay the first year, and like mentioned you can move to the jet the second year. As far as vacancy bid it all depends of movement, if movement stops or the training center is swamped you will not see a vacancy bid or they will not have many positions. If there is movement then the vacancy bids will be large due to all the people moving around on upgrades and aircraft transitions.

How hard would it be to commute to SJU from say PIT?

It is really scary when a part 121 jet powered airline pilot can say this:

I have never flow a turboprop, so you might as well be completely right! :D

I have nearly 1000 hours in the ATR-42 flying for Flagship/Nashville Eagle in the early 90's....... REALLY enjoyed the plane and the flying......

So for an Eagle new hire, would you recommend starting with the ATR and leaving the jet for later?

Just pick the one that shines better!

It's probably true the prop will be "more fun" to fly, but I'd go with whatever gives you the best quality of life.
