Boeing relies on federal government for defense, space and security business which is worth $30 billion a year

US president-elect Donald Trump urged the government on Tuesday to cancel an order with Boeing for a revamped Air Force One - a prominent symbol of the presidency - complaining that costs were out of control.

It was the latest example of Trump using his podium, often via brief Twitter messages, to rattle companies and foreign countries as he seeks to shake up business as usual in Washington. Trump, who would take office on Jan 20, took aim at what he called cost overruns even though the plane is only in development stages.
