It's a must if you want to stay a competitor in the online web design industry. Most modern website have a least a tiny bit of Flash on them.

Knowledge is power. I can see your point about knowing AJAX but there are limitations to it, especially if the user has JS turned of. On the other hand, flash is an all important tool. Previous commentators have mentioned that it is the future of the web and I truly believe so. APIs are becoming more and more popular and most of the times, flash is used. Adding additional skills to your resume will greatly increase your worth.

when you see a very attractive flash design & also needed in the website, there is a use of it in the work of the site, you then will know that it's a must to learn not the basics but the experts which will change 180º the view of your contents in the eyes of your users

If you want to increase your cash flow as a freelancer flash is definitely the way to go. Most freelancers on our freelance site with flash skills make more money because most webmasters always want that user interactive multimedia look to their site. Plus flash is very easy to learn and use.

I use flash in about 50% of the websites I make. It is a great skill to learn.

It varies depending on your target market as a web designer. For example, my specialty is clean, compliant design and I'd say that nearly 90% of my clients do not want flash on their site.
