Abstract
Engel structures on and are studied in this paper, where is a –dimensional manifold. We suppose that these structures have characteristic line fields parallel to the fibres, or . It is proved that they are characterized by contact structures on the cross section , the twisting numbers, and Legendrian foliations on both ends in the case of .
