If you're not using absolute strict typing and everything that AS3 has
(display, addChild, etc.), then you're gaining no benefit because Flash
will just kick down to VM1.
IMO, you should either rebuild it from scratch in AS3 style (using
sprites, display objects, etc.) or leave it as AS2 and save

Simple.
You solve for the ratio:
var ratio:Number = _width / _height;
You resize the _width:
_width = Math.max(newWidth, 500);
You set _height to the _width * ratio:
_height = _width * ratio;
fin.
