What was the original time frame given for the search? I thought it was 6 weeks and we're heading for week 5.

So.... a little Quick Poll....

I thought it was 10 weeks for the search. If I'm correct (?) only halfway through so far.

This is another article, prompted I believe by MM's posting on facebook. A bit more quoted in this one:

I think you're right.
At the very beginning when the search was first announced I think 6 weeks was mentioned, later it went to 6-8 weeks but more recently it changed again to 10 weeks.

Me too.

You don't have a like button either? Or you don't think Corrie will be found in landfill?

I mustn't have tap talk cos can't see no heart, I'm using an I phone, thanks anyway.
My thoughts are that he may have self harmed, due to hearing he suffered depression or that he took a fatal dose of something, somehow made it out of the horseshoe without being seen and collapsed somewhere out of sight. If he is found in landfill I think it's possible he took a bad dose of something, got into the bin and never made it out again.
I could be totally wrong but I feel he will be found elsewhere, and the sooner the better, for his families sake.

It has actually always been estimated to take 6-10 weeks.

From the 10th February SP update (the day they announced they would be searching the landfill):

The search will be a considerable task. The area identified is more than 920 square metres of waste down to a maximum depth of eight metres and it is estimated that it is likely take a team of specialist search trained police officers six to ten weeks to complete the work required.

Then from the 6th March SP update (the week the full-scale search was beginning after the prep was completed):

Police will begin a full-scale search of part of a landfill site at Milton in Cambridgeshire this week as part of the continuing investigation to find Corrie McKeague.

[...]

The search is likely to take six to ten weeks to complete, although this will obviously depend on daily progress on the site.

Apparently this is to make up for the two days that will be lost for the Good Friday and Easter Monday bank holidays.

Most important item in here is that investigation costs have hit £750k now, one of the most expensive MISPERS case ever. Probably up there with the Maddie and Ben cases.

I am wondering if they have found anything of interest? Also, they may wish to get search over with by Easter as well as take advantage of good weather. JMO

LOL I think you will find the Maddie case has cost the tax payer approx £12 million

No that is from 2011 and the start of Operation Grange

They know they are searching the right area of landfill as items of mail around that date and 'areas' have been found: http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/with-every-hour-know-were-10186320

Sounds promising. Wonder how much more they have to go through now.?

Again begging the question of why the hell all this stuff is in landfill. I don't get it.
