Subject:
PGH/AOD/M1 - Reprocessed and Corrected: airmass field is incorrectly set to -1 when 
failing QC.
DataStreams:pghmfrsraod1michM1.c1
Description:
DATA REPROCESSED and CORRECTED: 

The qc_airmass field indicates that the values in the airmass field are set to -9999, the 
missing value, when qc_airmass = 1 (the QC bit 1 was tripped). In reality, the values 
were set to -1 and will not be filtered out properly by programs that automatically remove 
missing values.

The processing code creating this data has been modified and the data reprocessed and 
archived in October 2016. Please retrieve the reprocessed data for use in your analysis.

The qc_airmass field indicates that values in the airmass field are set to -9999, the 
missing_value, when qc_airmass = 1 (QC bit 1 has tripped). In reality, the values are set to 
-1 and will not be filtered out by programs that automatically remove missing values. 
This will be fixed in a future reprocessing task.
