Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the first prong of the Dhanasar framework. Although the AAO agreed that the proposed endeavor as a pilot and flight instructor had substantial merit, it concluded that the petitioner did not sufficiently demonstrate the endeavor's national importance. Since the first prong was not met, the appeal was denied without reaching the other NIW criteria or the petitioner's underlying EB-2 eligibility.
