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.

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

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.
