Hello all. Can an AIR application be launched in the same way as a flash executable? or does it have to be installed first to run?

I need to auto launch an application off of a disc, i would like to use some air features such as transparent stage. is this possible? or am i stuck with using and executable projector file to launch off of a disc?

Thanks for any input!
