Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the 'national importance' of his proposed endeavor. The Director and the AAO concluded that while working as a pilot has substantial merit and the petitioner is well-positioned, he did not demonstrate how filling a single pilot position would have broader implications, alleviate a national labor shortage, or trigger substantial positive economic benefits at a level commensurate with national importance.
