Answer: download «Flex SDK 2» from www.adobe.com/support/flex/ts/documents/flex2_hf2/flex_sdk_2_Hotfix3.zip and develop using "Flex Builder 3". Flex SDK 2 is also included in «Flex Builder 3».
Some time ago I faced the strange challenge:
I had to make some improvements in customer's legacy code which was
developed using obsolete Flex SDK 2. I started searching link to
download that SDK in the Internet and it was the real problem to do it
from my Windows workstation or notebook. All links was broken or, at the
final stage, redirected me to the try & buy page of the recent
Adobe Flash Builder 4.7. E.g. labs.adobe.com/technologies/flex/sdk/flex2sdk.html
The only indiret way to acquire it was — to download obsolete «Flex
Builder 3 Plugin» for Eclipse and to install it on obsolete version of
Eclipse (no later than 3.4 is acceptable ;-)
And after that, thank heaven, I was able to grab Flex SDK 2 from that
installation. Actually «Flex Builder 3» is the latest IDE from Adobe
which support developing using Flex SDK 2.
But today I've hound the easier way to do it. I have direct link! That
link was obtained using link I've noticed above — in case you try to
open it on Apple computer — Adobe do not redirect you to modern Flash
Builder 4.7 «try&buy» page — but just allows you to get exactly what
you want: Flex SDK 2 :-) Thank you Stas.

And final warning: There were three versions of Flex SDK 2: original, hotfix 2 and hotfix 3. Use only «Flex SDK 2 hotfix 3»!
It took me more than 2 working days to guess, that customer provided me
with original «Flex SDK 2» which had the serious problem with SOAP
WebSrvices requests encoding.
