I guess my only question is do we want to go AIPF 3 way with AKos ?
My guess is no, I mean we don't really know how loose the villains are but chances are there are some pocket pairs in there. Is this an easy fold or should I take the flip in the future ?

Yes the board that comes is a bit disappointing but if I had called you can bet it would have been a much less appealing board :D.

Edit: hmm if you have an Ace high flush on board do we all split ? Regardless of the club King I have in my hand ?

I would lay this down. I'd rather be pushing than calling facing a 4-bet, a call and 2 people other than you in the pot still left to act; even if it is micro-limits.

P.S. You win the pot by means of having the K in your hand.

Your winning flush is AK965, the others have to play the board or use their next highest club which would be a Q at the best.

I would also lay this down (AKo/s). You have to assume you're up against a big pair (assume JJ) and almost guaranteed the other villain has an Ace or another AK. Because one of these guys has one or two of your outs makes you a dog in this spot.

your flush will win as it would play as akxxx, theres would be axxxx. now if they have a straight flush that is different.

as for shoving with AKo, it is questionable. In this spot I probably fold against realtive unknowns, but at the micro stakes people will shove all kinds of hands that you are crushing like AJ or even A8s. So I am okay with that.
