I had a friend who got a DUI who was a pilot at one of the big aienrlis. He did have to alert the FAA and they proceeded to do an assessment of his problem. If the assessment turns out bad, they will require treatment. If it seems like an isolated event, probably not. The first time is not usually fatal to a pilot career, but repeat DUIs will probably end a pilot's career.
