Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the 'national importance' of his proposed endeavor. The AAO concluded that the petitioner's business plan for a pilot training company did not demonstrate a substantial positive economic impact or a scale of operations that would rise to a national level. The projections for job creation and revenue were found to be unsubstantiated and insufficient to prove an impact beyond the local area of business.
