From the Valiant Air Command:
“We have heard your questions / requests with regards to when you will be able to experience the worldโs only flying Xp-82 Twin Mustang Prototype Project (44-83887), whether it be running or outside on the ramp.

Next Saturday, August 31st, we will be hosting our very first nighttime engine run, which will feature the XP-82 running both of her engines at night so our fans can see this wonderful restoration up close and personal. ๐๐ก๐จ๐ญ๐จ๐ ๐ซ๐๐ฉ๐ก๐ฒ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐ญ๐ก ๐๐ฅ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฐ๐๐ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ง๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐๐ ๐๐.
