One other little inconsistency is that Dumbledore apparently flies a
broomstick to London when called there toward the end of SS/PS. I
realize that it's probably just because of the fact that JKR hadn't
thought up Apparition yet, since Dumbledore should certainly be able
to Apparate. But it's a Flint, certainly. Maybe he accidentally let
his Apparition license expire...

Doesn't Hermione say, over & over again, that you can not apparate into or
out of Hogwarts? Perhaps that is why Dumbledore used his broomstick.  The
other reason, IMO, is that he was removed from his office, so maybe that had
something to do with it.
