There are two methods I use.

(1) Turn on the Develop menu in Safari and set your user agent to the iPad when 
you need Flash. This way the site thinks you’re using an iPad instead of a Mac. 
Many sites have a Flash-free version available for the iPad. It might lack a 
few gewgaws, but usually nothing you’ll miss.

(2) Keep the Chrome browser around for when you really have to use Flash. It 
has Flash built in and sandboxes the heck out of it for security. Of course, 
even Chrome is deprecating Flash really soon now.

There’s only one site I have to use that requires Flash. I fire up Chrome when 
I go there.
