Dont know of any apart from China Southern Flying College who fly the G115C2 and Flight training Adelaide and I think they fly the G115A or B. But both these school take on cadets from airlines not the public

Thanks so much newcomer, initally i wanted to do some flying on a grob for fortnight just to get used to the handling and a taste of the plane!

psyc-ho, I've come across guys who want to fly a Grob just because they want some advantage in getting onto the CX CPP.

IMHO that's somewhat a fallacy and I hope it doesn't apply to you. A true aviation student will appreciate that general aerodynamic theory is more important than focussing on a particular type merely because an airline trains cadets in it. It doesn't matter what you fly in CX terms, as long as it is an aeroplane, and as long as you are learning.

My 2 cents worth.
