LEON HARRIS, CNN ANCHOR: Well, now we go back to that passenger jet crash in India today. Of the 58 people on board, all but seven were killed and authorities report deaths on the ground as well. The 737 jet was on route to Patna from Calcutta in eastern India. And CNN's New Delhi bureau chief, Satinder Bindra, joins us now by phone form Patna with the very latest -- Satinder.</s>SATINDER BINDRA, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Leon, I have just returned from the crash site and I saw wreckage everywhere. The plane broke up into several parts as it crashed smack in the middle of a neighborhood. Several houses I noticed were completely destroyed and I saw several charred bodies, bodies that were burned beyond recognition still trapped in the airliner. More than 50 people are believed to have been killed, that's in the airplane itself, and several people on the ground also died. Still, Leon, it is miraculous that some people managed to escape. Officials here are telling me that seven people managed to escape. One Red Cross worker told me they were amazed when they saw this man just walking out of the wreckage; this wreckage, at that time, was burning. The injured have now been moved to a local hospital here in Patna. I'm told most of the injured have burn and concussion injuries. Meanwhile, more details are emerging about the crash. India's minister for civil aviation told me that one of the plane's engines was on fire just before it crashed. Now, eyewitnesses here in Patna are corroborating this account. Officials are also telling me that flying conditions were slightly hazy at the time of the crash. The plane crashed about 7:30 Monday morning local time. Now, most of the relatives of the passengers and the air crew have been informed. Special trains carrying the bodies of dead passengers are also being started from Patna. Reporting live from Patna, Satinder Bindra,</s>CNN. HARRIS: Thank you, Satinder.
