Not at all.. I am talking about how Hawaiian hires. I am a haole and my wife is polynesian... I can tell you in my experience in the last 20 years of living in the islands that haole is not a name that is normally considered offensive by anyone. We use it all the time at home. I would even say that it is even more of a term of endearment in my experience.

You can read more about the word Haole here if you wish:
Haole - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

But my main comment was that I do not believe that Hawaiian uses anyone's race as a means to determine their chances for employment as a pilot.
