I did flash/flex/air development for 5 years.. it was fun for sure but when you had problems you were at the mercy of adobe. Don't get me started on the many hacks I had to do to be able to use the core flash, hacks that fixed problems that adobe knew of but didn't care to fix for multiple version releases(they still break webcams every few releases). Needless to say I was sad when adobe stop pushing flash and I quickly had to switch gears ,but looking back I'm glad adobe did this. Flash is pretty pointless unless you are doing video. It hurts to see the company and tech you spent so many years/hours in just died without even fighting.

R.I.P Adobe and Flash
