I wonder what the Glasflügel and Grob support business models look like.

Both have other sources of income as well.

Grob supply the RAF's current basic trainer, the Tutor and, IIRC, have a
considerable non-aviation machine tool business.

Glasfaser seem to have quite a diverse aviation-related business as well.
According to their news page they are involved in both the Nimeta and
Concordia projects as well as supporting other gliders and aerobatic
aircraft.
