[Flashcoders] Implicit coercion error with inheritance

[Mendelsohn, Michael]

Hi list...

Seemingly simple, but why do I get an Implicit coercion error 1067 when 
instancing this:
var ceilingApparatus:EachItem= new FloorItem();

and, this error too:
var ceilingApparatus:FloorItem = new FloorItem();
// undefined
trace(ceilingApparatus["init"]);

package NewBuildingDirectory{
        import flash.display.MovieClip;
        public class EachFloor extends MovieClip{
                function EachFloor(){
                }
                public function init(whichFrame:int):void{
                        gotoAndStop(whichFrame);
                }
        }
}

package NewBuildingDirectory{
        public class FloorItem extends EachFloor{
                function FloorItem(){
                }
        }
}
