PRIA and pilot record request
#82
1. Poor attendance record or calling sick for reserve frequently etc
2. Fired for insubordination or bad attitude etc
3 Anything that DOES NOT relate to actually flying a plane, sim or some
kind of training event or ground operation like a walk around violation of some kind.
There is an FAA advisory circular (AC NO. 120-68F) that describes all of this.

I dont even think they will report if you were fired as long as it is not aviation/operations related such as violations, incidents, drunken flying etc.
I was told they would not report employment records such as fired for poor attendance or non operations related details due to the fear of being sued.
However maybe others have had different experiences.

Question
I recently was hired by a 135 operator and recied copies of my PRIA records after being on line for a month. I did opened them up a little later. I was surprised to see a drug test result in the file. I did not even now that it said "diliuted sample" negative. I do not even remember the day of the test. This was from a regional carrier that I am no longer employed with. My current employer did not say anything at all. Main question: Is this an issue with any future employers?

No, it's not. Or, it shouldn't be. What matters to a particular employer is really up to the employer. They're the one doing the hiring.

The only means to obtain ‘PRIA records’ is when a pilot is actually in the process of applying for employment to an air carrier as a commercial pilot. In this case, (1) FAA will provide a copy of the report to the applicant automatically, then (2) the applicant must check the ‘yes’ block on FAA form 8060-11A to receive copies of training and other records from the current or previous employer, then (3) the hiring air carrier should see that the applicant receives a copy of the NDR (DMV) records once the report has been received by them. This is generally the ONLY way an applicant is able to receive these particular records.

I don't think I've ever received a copy of records as a result of checking the box, and I've checked it every time, since the program began.
Ever.
Not once.

Even one case in which it turned out that the "airlines" that the applicant "flew" for were virtual...as in didn't exist. He'd put on a uniform every day, sat down at a computer and flown an online "virtual" airline, logged it, and put it in an application as experience. Forget PRIA...the "employer" might not exist at all.
