INCORRECT
It is assumed the Icarus was destroyed, but nobody knows what really happened to the thing. Maybe the Pirates boarded it and killed Gabriel, maybe Gabriel somehow, through an impossible miracle, won, and is still exploring.

No actual time-line was given from the Birth of air (Gabriel) to current day happenings... Given the change in tech and design since the Icarus, I think we can safely say if ol' Gabe is still in the skies, he's pretty damn old now...
But I do love the fact it is assumed he's dead and the ship destroyed, this does leave it open to possibilities...
"We found the Icarus! Its legit! Though Gabe is gone its a bunch of raiders at the helm! You have to get that ship! Take her out as gently as possible!!!"
*Arms carronades.*
Saull:
I'd certainly hope though that the Icarus gets a bit of a make over while still maintaining its overall original look. Extra armor on the balloon and hull as well as a more streamlined body would keep it from looking too dated.
Mister awesomeness:
For those of you who don't know you can actually play as Gabriel and the Icarus in the game, Flight of the Icarus. In the end of the game you play a survival mode called into the breach witch is Gabriel's final battle. Regardless the Icarus falls burning to earth, not kidding you actually see the Icarus falling burning from the sky. So I highly doubt the Icarus survived. Gabriel though may have survived, although the GOIO takes place 87 after the destruction of the Icarus, So Gabriel probably would have died of old age before GOIO. Ether way, The history tells us that after his supposed death, People went into the same city that Gabriel constructed the Icarus in. Its said that they found the original plans for Icarus. So my point is if the Icarus did return, it would be a reproduction of the ship not the original, however this would make much more sense, as since the Icarus was the largest/ most advanced airship to be used since the great war, It would be believable that by this point in time, people have the resources to recreate an Icarus class airship. If the ship did return I think for the sake of not creating loop holes in the story they would be new models of the ship. This would also allow the world to have more than one of Icarus class ether as roaming boss ships, or cargo ships we need escort. Ether way the Icarus has huge potential to come back in the adventure mode (or even better PVP)
sorry my comments are so long, i have a lot of things to say

I still say the bandits would have to be really stupid not to salvage something they only took down through sheer overwhelming numbers.

To be fair, they probably just stripped whatever small bits remained clean.
