0:00:31 > 0:00:35organised by his family

0:00:35 > 0:00:37and separate from the police operation.

0:00:39 > 0:00:40heathland at Barton Mills

0:00:40 > 0:00:42where his mobile phone signal was picked-up five months ago.

0:00:42 > 0:00:45This is one of the country's longest-running lowland searches

0:00:45 > 0:00:46ever to have taken place.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48For the third time in five months, volunteers

0:00:48 > 0:00:50search teams across Southeast Anglia have turned out, joined the first

0:00:50 > 0:00:52time from Scotland by Corrie Mckeague's eldest brother.

0:00:52 > 0:00:54I should be out helping, it shouldn't just be

0:00:54 > 0:00:57members of the public just coming out to do it.

0:00:57 > 0:00:59Again, so thankful for their work and support through all this.

0:01:02 > 0:01:10what happened to her son.

0:01:10 > 0:01:11Yesterday evening, the deadline passed to

0:01:11 > 0:01:19clean it.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22We knew that we were never going to leave it forever.

0:01:22 > 0:01:24This was never a case of, if someone's out

0:01:24 > 0:01:27walking in five years and they happen to find Corrie,

0:01:27 > 0:01:28they get to claim a reward.

0:01:28 > 0:01:30That person would have called the police anyway.

0:01:30 > 0:01:32Search teams from Suffolk, Norfolk, Essex and Cambridgeshire are out,

0:01:32 > 0:01:35including members of the public, about 100 people in total today.

0:01:35 > 0:01:37They've identified an area of 50 square kilometres where Corrie

0:01:37 > 0:01:39Mckeague or his telephoned me feasibly be.

0:01:39 > 0:01:42They admit it is harder than finding a needle in a haystack.

0:01:42 > 0:01:44You have to find the haystack to find the

0:01:44 > 0:01:45needle, don't you?

0:01:45 > 0:01:46Where is the haystack?

0:01:46 > 0:01:49We are kind of coming to a close on viable areas and areas

0:01:49 > 0:01:51that you can get to you by car.

0:01:51 > 0:01:53We're running out of ideas without new information.

0:01:53 > 0:01:56We are running out of ideas and it's really just

0:01:56 > 0:01:58clutching at straws.
