This may seem like a stupid question...but what about when it was cloudy? Can I assume the BFF was flying above the clouds most (or all) of the time?

Yes, haze and clouds were a problem at low altitudes, but most of the time the aircraft was above the clouds. The Aurora Borealis (northern lights) was potentially a problem; the system included an aurora filter.
