About

As so often happens, it was a combination of influences and events that led to the lecturing of our first Cabin Attendant course, the start of what would become Cabin Crew Academy.
a man called LB Smith with a passion for aviation where he ran his successful Passenger consultants business, all played a part.
“LB has always been obsessed with aviation training ” and remembers how he has raised a family in and around developing the aviation training business. “In fact, he started his career at South African Airways in 1940. LB wan was involved in so many ventures, but I didn’t see this one coming.

After 40 years plus in the Aviation Industry he started as Cabin Crew and was regularly promoted to more senior positions. He left SAA in 1993 as the Cabin Crew Training Manager, a position he held for 8 years.
In the same year he registered a CC, “ON BOARD CONSULTANCIES”, with the main purpose of training Cabin Crew.
Since 1993 he trained Cabin Crew, amongst others, in Athens (Greece), Seychelles, Windhoek (Namibia), Kampala (Uganda), Dar es Salaam (Tanzania), Blantyre Malawi etc.
In 2007 he decided to start a training school, Cabin Crew Academy. This school was given full accreditation by the SA-CAA, (South African Civil Aviation Authority) after the Training Manual, all relevant documentation, Venue, and Equipment were approved.
