There
is also an example in the Explorer using context menus.

Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Context menu
I can't remember seeing anything in the Beta docs, but i did start a
thread onthe beta forums about the context menu. Basically, Flex
doesn't give us anything over and above the MX/Flash Player 7 way of
creating context menus.
Also, there is a restriction in Flash Player 7 that means a movie clip
nested withing another movie clip cannot have a context menu attached to
it - since all Flex containers and components end up in the Flash player
as movie clips this effectively means that you can only add context
menus to the top level application or to components that sit within that
top level application. I'm hoping that a future Flash Player will
address this.
However, saying that, I do know of a book coming out soon that contains
and an example of a custom component that lets you easily add context
menus to your Flex applications....
