yes you can bubble an event up in Flex 1.5.? See

in short use bubbles: true in the dispatcher

dispatchEvent({type: “myEvent”, bubbles: true, target: this});

    note, the event target changes as the event bubbles and it can not be set, Flex/Flash overrides it. To keep the original target in the event add a property. eg

    dispatchEvent({type: “myEvent”, bubbles: true, target: this, originaleventtarget : this});
