    Thirty-one survivors of a fatal plane crash that occurred in San Francisco on July 6 returned to their hometown in east China's Zhejiang Province on Sunday.

    The returnees included 26 students and five teachers from Jiangshan Middle School in the city of Jiangshan, who had been part of a 35-member group heading to the U.S. for a summer camp.

    Three female students of the group died in the crash and one seriously injured is still under treatment in San Francisco.

    The local government has invited lawyers and experts to form a consulting group to help work out a compensation plan for families of the victims, said Jiang Dafu, deputy director of the city government's general office, in a press briefing.

    The local authorities will offer psychological counselling for the surviving students, Jiang said.

    A total of 141 Chinese were among the 291 passengers aboard when Asiana Airlines Flight 214 bound for San Francisco from Seoul made a crash landing at the San Francisco International Airport a week ago.
