Not the only one. I have great memories from many years spent building real products in AS3 - some of them even had users!
For a while RIM/Blackberry was using Adobe Air - on the Playbook and also the built-in app suite in the lead up to the launch of BB10. The latter never saw the light of day though, a late decision was made to replace all of the built-in apps with Qt/Cascades equivalents (if I remember right this was due largely to memory requirements of the Air apps).
