It's not possible natively. The iPad will not run Windows executable files, and Apple does not want Flash running on their devices.

I've found some info that states it might be possible this way..

One way to do it is to run a virtual windows desktop on the iPad using Parallels or something like it: http://handymacapps.com/ipad/2463/painl ... rallels-6/.

Just if it helps others :)

I was assuming you meant just install and run :) . VMware are working on a solution as well as Parallels. I won't expect blazing performance though...
If you don't mind going the non-official route, I believe there are a couple of Jailbreak solutions being developed to get Flash swf's running without a VM.
Here's one JB solution for getting Flash on the iPad.

This one could be promising as well
