This will show up on your FOIA from the FAA and (maybe) your PRIA depending if the airline even still has your record. Up until a few years ago airlines were not required to keep them longer than 5 years. The only way to get exactly what the airline will see is to do a FOIA and PRIA check on yourself. Its not exactly free but It will give you the "truth"
What's FOIA?
What records an airline typically asks for?

FOIA is all of your airman records, including every checkride submission, pass or failure, any letter that has gone into your airman file, anything to do with your certificate, violations, etc.
As far as what the airline asks for, it's all over the board. I've asked airman records about this specifically, and they said some airlines do the "basic", some do the "full FOIA", it just depends on the airline. Probably safe to assume they do the FOIA though.

PRIA is what the airline has on you , employment dates, check ride and training documentation , formal letters of discipline ..ASAP or warning letters from that program are NOT disclosed in PRIA.
PRIA is Pilot Record Improvement Act which is a record keeping requirement for employers so pilots with crappy records can't continuously bounce from airline to airline without said record being known.
FOIA is everything the FAA knows about you clear back to your student pilot certificate. All ratings or the results of any 8710 you ever filled out. Also included violations, incidents , accidents. ..again warning letters are the only thing not released.
FOIA is Freedom of Information Act . the government has to disclose requested information that is not classified. it's used all the time by the press etc and by airlines to verify your FAA certificates are real and valid.

Airlines always do both , you can count on it. I used to be in charge of this program at another airline. I commonly see the term PRIA as one that is very misunderstood .

Disregard.. I went to the FOIA request page on the FAA site. You fill out the form and describe what type of records you wish- Accident/ Incident/ Medical/Training/etc. There is a phone # there for more info if you need it. Hope this helps.
