Mark, Thanks for the reply. I was under the impression that AddChild would simply put the object on the display list, not duplicate it. My goal is to load the swf(movieclip) once then duplicate it so it can be put on the display list at multiple places in the app. Any ideas on that? Thanks.

If you need to duplicate it, you'll have to use "addChild(ship)". It's addChild in AS3 so it's that way in Flash as well as Flex.
