I have to agree with the rest, take stabilty over pay.
I have an ATR42/72 rating, but i do know at the moment that most companys that operate the ATR only need captains at the moment as many places are over stocked with FO's especially since many are not leaving for jet jobs since the economic climate and the big influx of pilots back on the market due to the recent collapses.
As for flying the ATR, we can do things you cannot do in the 737, like stay at 180 knotts and then cut power, props to max and we are slowing down very nicely for an approach.
You will also get to fly in and out of more weather since the ice bucket is always in the weather level
Anyway ive rambled enough.
