The AAO found that the Petitioner did not establish how his individual employment as a pilot would alleviate the nationwide pilot shortage or impact the broader field of aviation beyond his prospective employers and customers. General industry importance and worker shortage are insufficient to establish national importance; the petitioner must show the specific prospective impact of his own endeavor.

AAO agreed that the industry reports and articles did not discuss the Petitioner's specific proposed endeavor and therefore could not establish national importance.

While such evidence could support a finding of substantial merit, it was insufficient on its own to show the endeavor's potential to have significant economic effects or broad field impact. The Petitioner's personal assertions were unsupported and thus insufficient.
AAO found it unnecessary to rule on the RIMS II methodology dispute, instead concluding that the business plan lacked corroborating evidence for its projections, the projected staffing and profits were not substantial enough to demonstrate national importance, the petitioner did not establish he would serve an economically depressed area, the expert letter was generic without specific impact analysis, and merely working in…

AAO found the Petitioner misread Dhanasar's statement about the NYSDOT standard, and that the NYSDOT framework is vacated and inapplicable. AAO reaffirmed its prior finding that the record lacked sufficient evidence of the broader implications of the Petitioner's work or its national importance, including documentary support for grant proposals and the potential field-wide impact of his proposed endeavor.

The Petitioner's personal statement and articles addressed the general value of logistics rather than the prospective impact of his specific endeavor. Recommendation letters praised his qualifications but are more relevant to the second prong. He failed to identify a specific area of service, quantify potential economic effects, or demonstrate how his work would impact job creation or the broader economy at a level commensurate with national importance.
