You can look up my previous summary of the issues with Flash and
accessibility but it boils down to no access for Mac and iOS machines
and limited access on Windows, only if pains are taken to make it
accessible. You also limit search engine discover since Flash is not
generally crawlable by Google and others. Today there isn't much that
you can do in Flash which can't be done in HTML so might as well go that
route. They might also want to look into Adobe Edge which is their new
tool for creating Flash like stuff in HTML

Hello all,
I'm currently in talks with a potential client.
What's the verdict on the use of flash when creating web sites? Below
you'll find an abbreviated version of an email, from this person, that
made me want to ask about this.
At present my company is gearing up to launch a
site to give tours for those who have autism and asperger's (as well as
other special needs). We will also be offering weekend
tours for everyone (not just autistic spectrum) as part of the site
too --
weekend historical and cultural trips.
That said, I have about two weeks to put a site together, soup to nuts,
talking about the various offerings and explaining our itinerary in
detail.
I was seriously thinking about using Wix flash based sites for the
offerings-- have you ever worked with them?
