Only in the unusual situation of 2 or more all ins in front of you can you consider calling, keep in mind that its likely some of your flush outs are countered by a set or 2pair comleting to a full house.
All-in on the flop is a terrible move with TPTK for a 17bb pot with 100bb stacks, only sets or 2 pair will call if they are next to act and thereafter flushdraws will be getting odds to call.
The point is, if you're not going to play AK aggressively(after a large preflop raise) when A rag rag flops (even with 2 to a flush), why even play it/raise it preflop in the first place? You've caught your hand. The flop is the time to put people to the test.
You've got to assume that with a preflop raise like that, you're dealing with PPs, high cards and decent suited connectors, or Ax. The only two hands I'd be worried about here are trips or A10. Most people I've encountered typically don't check/raise or slowplay two pair, so the main hand you've got to worry about is trip 10s or 6s.
I'm really not worried about the flush draw calling me all-in. Most decent players aren't willing to call their entire stack with only 4 to a flush, and those who make that gamble do tend to leave the table broke at some point or another.
