LONGVIEW –- A cooling system malfunction was being blamed this morning for grounding an American Eagle flight Wednesday evening at East Texas Regional Airport. It was a scary landing for passengers aboard the American Eagle flight 4777. When the plane from Dallas landed shortly after 5:15, smoke was reported in the cabin. After the plane landed, the pilot taxied off the runway and all 47 passengers evacuated the plane safely. They’re still trying to determine what caused the smoke. –
