I've seen exactly the same flashing, quite bright, then vanished, as you would expect a Satellite to do. It was much brighter than you would expect a high altitude plane to be and travelling about the speed of a satellite. As you have done Dennis, I did a search and found nothing.
From memory the object was travelling roughly NW-SE and around the zenith when it dimmed and disappeared.
