This total is an estimate (≈ $24,500). The filing carries no dollar figure, so we sized it from median day rate of 123 priced orders on KBSD-DT; 7-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.
