These are the sizes you needed so far:

29x29

36x36

40x40

48x48

50x50

57x57

58x58

72x72

76x76

80x80

96x96

100x100

114x114

120x120

144x144

152x152

512x512

1024x1024

With iPhone 6+ you also need 87x87 and 180x180, but I don't know if AIR or Flash Pro support those yet.

I can only choose one, which one? 50x50, 57x57 or 72x72?

What program are you using? Flash Pro asks for 16 different sizes. As you'll need more than that you can just add the icons to the app descriptor XML. It would be like this:

<icon>

    <image29x29>icons/29.png</image29x29>

    <image36x36>icons/36.png</image36x36>

    <image40x40>icons/40.png</image40x40>

    <image48x48>icons/48.png</image48x48>

    <image50x50>icons/50.png</image50x50>

    <image57x57>icons/57.png</image57x57>

    <image58x58>icons/58.png</image58x58>

    <image72x72>icons/72.png</image72x72>

    <image76x76>icons/76.png</image76x76>

    <image80x80>icons/80.png</image80x80>

    <image87x87>icons/87.png</image87x87>

    <image96x96>icons/96.png</image96x96>

    <image100x100>icons/100.png</image100x100>

    <image114x114>icons/114.png</image114x114>

    <image120x120>icons/120.png</image120x120>

    <image144x144>icons/144.png</image144x144>

    <image152x152>icons/152.png</image152x152>

    <image180x180>icons/180.png</image180x180>

    <image512x512>icons/512.png</image512x512>

    <image1024x1024>icons/1024.png</image1024x1024>

</icon>

The path part would need to be correct for your setup. In my case the files are all in a folder named "icons".
