At higher levels you need a flying mount, so to create some that aren't weak I used the Monsters as Characters section in Frank & K's Tome pdf to determine ability modifiers for the griffon, hippogriff, and pegasus and plugged them into classes that seemed appropriate.

I follow ya, but those races are far better than normal. So I guess you should be using conversion method 3 (which made the monsters hand out HD instead of having classes) or make actual monster classes (I tried it, BTW, though I'm fairly sure we should be talking about medium BAB).
