I think the Falcos are classified on a per-aircraft basis. Some were
built in "factories" (if you can classify as a factory a place where
people use simple hand tools and drink wine at lunch). Some were built
from plans out of raw materials in one-car garages. And as you point
out some are built in fully-stocked workshops from the
expensive-but-worth-it Sequoia kits.

Perhaps I misunderstand, but to me it doesn't sound quite right to
question the plans-built status of one example simply because a
different example was built in a production environment (wine at lunch
nonwithstanding).

Thanks, and best regards to all
