Everything as an adult (18+) will show up.
Be forthcoming.
If in doubt, get your own BG check prior so you're sure of exactly what to report.
In most cases they aren't looking for an offense free background (certain convictions are disqualifying) but for an honest, candid applicant.

Bring it up now and you've already lied, your gone. They find it, you lied, your gone. The best you can hope for IMHO is that you keep your trap shut about it to everyone you know forever and you may get through this with a job. 10 years ago it may not come up. 10 years ago you most likely did not do time for it. Either way Good Luck.
I am not telling you to be dis-honest(kinda already covered that base) just no sense in digging a hole you have no chance of getting out of.
Heck, Doug Parker's a DUI'er and they let him run the company.

I had one & only one back in 1986. Mine didn't show up. However, just as everyone has suggested. Be honest. B/c if the airline uncovers it, you can best believe the FAA will find out....there goest thy 1st Class Medical....out the door.
