Our late friend Earl1937 flew the P-82.  He was going to be assigned to them until they fell out of favor for light attack bombers.  I think he had around 15 flights in them.
Currently ignoring Vraciu as he is a whoopeeed retard.

IIRC There is a P-82 under restoration somewhere as well.

I am aware of the OP's XP-82 and also an F-82E.  Didn't know there were more, which would be great.
