Extract

In (1) we showed that a subgroup closed Fitting formation is a primitive saturated formation, and in (2) we showed that a subgroup closed and metanilpotent Fitting class is a formation. Whether or not a subgroup closed Fitting class is always a formation is a question that has plagued us ever since. The purpose of this paper is to prove
