KUNMING, China (AP) – No survivors have been found as rescuers search the scattered wreckage of a China Eastern plane carrying 132 people that crashed on a wooded mountainside in China’s worst air disaster in more than a decade. State broadcaster CCTV says wreckage has been found but “none of those aboard the plane with whom contact was lost have been found.” The Boeing 737-800 crashed near Wuzhou in the scenic, semitropical Guangxi region, leaving a deep, charred pit on the mountain. The plane was nearing the point when it would begin its descent when it pitched downward in a steep, fast dive. Soldiers and helmeted rescue workers were combing the charred crash site and surrounding heavily dense vegetation.
