This total is an AI estimate (≈ $21,500). The filing carries no dollar figure, so Sentinel sized it from median day rate of 11 priced orders on KAKE; 9-day flight. The real total is not known yet and is left out of confirmed-spend figures; we update it when a later invoice or the candidates' finance filings land.
