Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that his proposed endeavor of working as a flight instructor has national importance under the Dhanasar framework. While the AAO acknowledged the endeavor has substantial merit, it concluded that a shortage of qualified professionals in a field is not sufficient on its own to demonstrate national importance, and the petitioner did not show his work would have a broad enough impact to significantly reduce the national pilot shortage.
