    If your menu is flash its advisable to have non flash text link navigation as well in the footer.

    Search engines can't read flash do an alternative html site or alternative html menu

    Seo on Flash sites is very difficult.

    You could cloak an HTML version of the flash based website to googlebot but i wouldn't recommend it unless you know what you're doing.

    Flash is impressive but you can't really crack good SEO with it whatever, those good old HTML sites will generally leave you ranks behind.

    SEO and Flash don't go together.

    The best you can do in my experience is have a html alternative (link on main index page). It doesn't have to be huge. Just have it summarise the content in flash, highlighting all the key points :)
