Azul 5853 had been flying when he contacted Brasilia Center informing that he needed to divert to the nearest suitable airport due to unreliable altimeter indication. The pilot also requested vectors under VMC for a visual approach.
Brasilia Center understood the problem and informed the pilot that Brasilia International was operating under Visual conditions, so he instructed AZUL to turn left heading 230 and reduce speed to 320 knots for separation.
