I think what Anthony was asking for was not a Flash-like timeline, but
rather a Flex component for making a visual timeline, where he could have
items along it that users could click on to get information.

In that vein, I've not really seen anything out there that does that as a
flex component.

  Don't know if this will help you or not, but I have
found using states, view stacks, and tab navigators,
and esp. the outline view to be very helpful when
designing in flex. I like it much better than the
timeline, actually. You should be able to find lots of
free tutorials on those subjects, esp. at the adobe
flex developer site.

Note that I only have to complete very rudimentary
projects in flex, so maybe someone with more
experience can help you more, but that's what worked
for me.

I also found the Charles E. Brown Flex 2 book to be
useful. All of the texts and the materials have
problems, but it helped me enough to complete the
projects I wanted to complete.

Good luck...Flex is pretty cool once you find your way
around it.
