AKs with fd against two plrs - bet for value?

[netsurfer79]

Here's a situation which I often get into problems with. I get big slick, but have a tendency of getting too aggressive with it. I've played at this table for about ~50 hands, and the BB seems to be a calling station - went to showdowns over 40%. UTG seems to be quite passive - on several occasions he's had TPTK but doesn't bet out.

Couple of questions:

Is it correct to bet out on the flop? (I reckoned, that since the flush arrives in ~35% + my overcards, it's positive EV, right?)

What about the turn? Should I have taken the free-card here? With four or more opponents or head-up I easily bet out, but I suspect I threw away one unnecessary bet there...

Betting the river is certainly out of the question..

Any thoughts..?
