Forkner was accused of trying to deceive the FAA during the agency’s evaluation of the 737 MAX aircraft. The indictment alleged Forkner “provided the agency with materially false, inaccurate, and incomplete information about a new part of the flight controls for the Boeing 737 MAX.” In October 2021, Acting U.S. Attorney Chad Meacham for the Northern District accused Forkner of withholding critical information from regulators.
