I would disclose it as one of the questions usually is "have you received any communication from the FAA regarding a investigation etc.."
I wouldn't worry about it you'll get hired, you will however get fired if you don't disclose things.

Just disclose it and move on. Regionals won't care even the "better" ones. Just be straight aboht it, what happened,and what you learned and how you made sure not to have it happens it again. If you don't tell them. They WILL learn about it, especially if it came, or was reported to a FSDO. Any serious background check, which they will do will bring it up. Just be honest and most likely they won't care. Yes regionals are still excusing people a week into ground school for stuff like this when people don't bring it up in the interview.

Be honest and be prepared to tell what you learned from it. Don't play the blame game.
FWIW, I had an actual violation as a CFI, stupid mistake but completely guilty. Filed an ASAR/NASA form. Received the "violation but no action, no suspension" letter. Disclosed it, talked about it, and got hired. Good Luck.

I don't know where you are applying to but I spoke with a recruiter today and they mentioned that they just want honesty. I've you've done something ie failed checkride, violation, and such then be up front and don't hide it. A warning letter is not a big deal. Just put it down on an application if its asked.

Never. Hide. Anything. If it's something they don't care about, they will at least be impressed that you were honest enough to bring it up. If it is something they care about, disclosing it is indeed vital to your career as others have said.

PRIA is one thing, but airlines usually request a copy of your airmen records (with your consent), which is a different animal than when they make a PRIA inquiry. This is where they see part 61/142 check ride failures, etc. Although the record should be expunged, the only way to know for sure is to request a copy of your airmen records. If it's not expunged, it'll be in your airmen records. It's always a good idea to know what is in there before applying to airlines. The FSDO does not have access to this, as it's kept in OKC. Additionally, there are some good guides on the FAA.gov website about PRIA and FOIA. I think these should be mandatory reading for any commercial pilot.

Oh, and ALWAYS check the "I want a copy too" box when filling out all the PRIA paperwork.
