I was just evaluating Adobe Flex for a project. But came across this question.
Like PhoneGap/HTML5 apps run on top of Browser/WebKit of the operating system, How does Flex works?

Adobe Flex targets Adobe Integrated Runtime (AIR) or Flash player as runtime for the application. More on Wiki page.
For iOS, the runtime is bundled with every application created for iOS, at the time of packaging. For Android, you can bundle runtime for every app or separately download and install the AIR app from Play store on your phone. (Refer: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/848409)
Hope that helps!
