A method for constructing Fitting-Schunck classes is given: the method is an adaptation of one given by C. L. Kanes for constructing Fitting formations, and generalizes the Fitting-Schunck class construction given by Cossey in 1981. A criterion for deciding which of the Fitting-Schunck classes so constructed are formations is given.
