You forgot Yoda, Owen and Beru Lars, and Chewbacca. All of them were seen in Episode 3.
As for the R2D2 flight problem, all machines require maintenance. The flight ability could have been added by Aniken (since it was his droid for a while) and later removed (or allowed to fall out of repair since noone knew about it), or simply could have fallen out of repair (and was discontinued in later R2 units). It has been mentioned in several post-movie books that astromechs had maneuvering thrusters (but not flight boosters).
