Test results from the swabs and scrapings of plane fragments to detect the presence of traces of explosives will at least take a week.
Really? I suspect someone if playing for time.

Several times I have been selected for such testing after passing through the metal detector / scanner. How come airport security can test me and my carry-on in 30 seconds.

Sure thats just one test, and they will be running thousands of samples. But "at least a week."
