📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide ranges and clear line items, allowing a reasoned baseline; however uncertainty remains regarding operational tempo (frequency of interactions), anomaly-driven equipment attrition rates, and option choices (aircraft purchase vs contract), so medium confidence is appropriate.
