Everhart was summoned by the president-elect at the time to his Mar-a-Lago retreat in Florida over the costs of buying two new Air Force Ones.

He had to explain to Trump that the projected $4 billion cost was not just for two Boeing 747-8s and the bill includes support for the aircraft over a period of 30 years.
