Can I work as an airlines pilot or work for law enforcement with a felony charge?

When I was 17 I got arrested and charged with robbery (3rd) non violent. I stole 8 grand, on the day of my arrest most of the money was recovered by police. In court, I plead guilty and received adjudicated a youthful offender (YO) and 5 years felony probation. I spoke with my attorney and he said my case is sealed also said since my conviction was replaced with a YO, I should be good. Now 24 yrs old and finished with probation and restitution. I would love to be a commercial airline pilot or plan b work for law enforcement. I thought since my case was sealed I would be ok but the military won't even take me because my charge and took over 500 bucks. Would the airlines say the same thing? I spoke with my local police department and they said as long I'm not convicted of any felony I'll be fine but after doing research I keep seeing things like being charged of a felony and convicted of a felony will be tough when I comes to apply for state and government jobs. I try not to get discouraged but I need to know where I stand or if I should change my career path. I just don't want my past to stop a potential career. Thank you in advance for your feedback.
