Additional Information
The objective of this flight was to measure clouds, smoke and fires in different regions of the cerrado and Amazon basin; and to collect large statistics of 150,000 square km of fire-smoke and smoke-cloud interactions and relationships. Less fire activity was anticipated and observed due to it being Sunday. There was still are large fraction of smoldering fires in the north from the previous day.

The pilot reported heavy smoke near Alta Floresta, and clearer conditions towards Cuiaba and Porto National.
