I believe Adobe Flash CABs get expired automatically in their catalog you will just need to import the latest CABs when you get notified there's been update to their catalog in the "Recent Alerts" section.
You will then probably want to publish the expired updates to WSUS so clients don't potentially have two flash player versions applicable and deployed from SCCM. If you don't expire the expired updates to WSUS, it may cause the older expired version to be installed prior to the current version. For Reader, some versions depend on others. I probably wouldn't manually expire these unless Adobe expires them in their catalog then you should be fine publishing those expired updates to WSUS.

They don't have dependencies that I have experienced. I leave the Reader updates in place for the most part just in case.

Using SCUP for adobe related updates, when a new version of flash or reader or full comes out, do you go ahead and expire the old updates or must they all stay active stairstepping through update levels? When I am creating my own custom updates, I have an idea about what to do based upon my installed and installable rules and the msi or exe I setup for the update... Also, Reader 11.0.4 seems to error out a large amount of the time. It doesn't seem to prevent 11.08 from installing so that got me to wondering if my process needed to include expiring old adobe updates. Just doing a sanity check.
