Jan is their plan --- for internal pilots (...professional instructors and corporate pilots who have fulfilled their committments to those departments).
I think those guys will have plenty of notice, because their managers have to backfill their slots.
External hiring from the "current pool" may not happen until Feb or even March --- and my guess is 2-4 weeks notice for those guys.
The real unkown is when will the meet-n-greets and interviews start again for pilots not in the current pool.
There will be a need for at least 90-100 new hire pilots next year.
