This opinion is "published in part" so there was more. I think you are asking for what lawyers call the "holding" or the decision.

I have quoted the pertinent portions.

PRIA neither prohibits air carriers from requiring pilot applicants to disclose disciplinary action that subsequently was rescinded, nor prohibits the firing of a pilot who falsely reports that there has been no such disciplinary action.
Neither the promotion of air safety through the hiring of qualified pilots nor the protection of the privacy of pilots as provided in the act is placed into jeopardy when an air carrier asks a pilot who applies for employment whether he or she has ever been suspended, terminated or otherwise disciplined by any previous employer, regardless of whether the action was subsequently overturned, and no policy promulgated by the act permits such a pilot to lie or otherwise fail to reveal the information once it is requested. Accordingly, the trial court did not err by dismissing Boring's wrongful termination claim on summary judgment.
