I've already heard delay rumors.

It is dead, they didn't get the financing they needed.

F4.0 has just evolved so much I can't help but steal Toads skirt and dye it Blue, and do something obscene, with gymnastics in mind. F5 or not, I'd donate to those guys.

Still, LOCK-ON is slated 1/1/03. It will kill what's left of my time,  including IL-2.

It's almost  frustrating.

I've re-tried Falcon4 lately ...and wow, quite a change indeed. 1600/1200 runs smoothly on today's PC's... only now, I need a bigger brain to remember the additional 150 key combos.

takes too much time to get in, but if you're serious about it, sure must be nice.

Montezuma nailed it.

At the moment the financing is gone.

Am I missing something? it's just been delayed as far as Frugal's World reports it would'nt be the first sim to have been delayed like this and Lock On has also been pushed back too.

MZ is correct; the project is totally dead.  I know personally of two members of the Falcon 5 team who were laid off and are either now looking for or have already found work elsewhere.

Do ya know Claude? I used to fly Longbow and Falcon at LAN parties at his house in Grapevine. Haven't heard from those guys in a while.
