No, there's been occasional screenshot and even video demos of stuff from their "new" (i.e. 2006 vintage) project Fighter Ops, and every once in a while they suggest a possible release plan, but otherwise you're right... I think it is vapourware. I had read at one point that there were no full-time employees at Lead Pursuit, meaning that all those who worked on the project had day jobs and they could not commit resources to development and management of the project full-time. If that's not an admission that it's most likely to turn to vapourware, I'm not sure what is.

Of course I wish the developers all the best, but I think the fact is that since 1.0.13, Lead Pursuit hasn't really existed as such.
