You should only use FLAASH if you are interested in converting your
MASTER radiance data to apparent reflectance. This is only applicable
for the first 25 bands (0.4621-2.3955 microns). If you are looking to
convert the thermal bands to some sort of temperature estimates,
you'll have to use another method.

For FLAASH to work correctly with MASTER data, you would need to
supply a filter function file by choosing UNKNOWN-MSI as the Sensor
Type and then clicking on the Multispectral Settings button. The
filter function file would have to be built from scratch using the
calibration report for your particular flight line(s). This is not a
trivial process and cannot be done interactively in ENVI. An
appropriate FLAASH scale factor for MASTER data is 10.
