I don't see any interest in using a flugel with a mute: though the straight mute on a flugel may sound a bit different than a muted trumpet the only application I see is on tutti muted passages for chamber ensembles, brass and wind bands. I mean when the whole section have to play muted. In soloistic situation it just seems pointless...at least to me.
