All objects dispatch FlexEvent.Remove when they are removed from a container - this occurs on the stage and also in Container objects (since Container and Stage both exhibit the same behaviour).
The FlexEvent.Remove is a way of trapping the message that an object is being removed by its parent. Im not sure which Remove you are referring to (possibly Event.REMOVED or Event.REMOVED_FROM_STAGE?). FlexEvent.Remove is more elegant as its a one stop event for subitems of containers and those on the stage. The other two Event messages seem to be very temperamental from my experience.
