I'm pretty sure that none of Poma's Falcon terminals had overhead drives like we're used to seeing today. The drive was always housed in a separate Alpha terminal, or it was a vault drive. From what I understand, all of Poma's Falcon HSQ's with vault drives were top drive. If a lift was bottom drive, it always got the Alpha-Falcon setup.
The Falcon gondola terminals usually had vault drives, but Stowe has an overhead bottom drive on their gondola. It's also part of a larger building, so maybe that gave them the extra space for an overhead drive. The Whistler Village Gondola, as well as the gondolas at Stratton and Aspen use this terminal with a vault drive.

The Flyer and the Colorado Super Chair were the first generation of falcon type chairs and I believe they eventually changed the design.
