If I lead out, what im trying to represent on a flop like this?

He's likely to be suspicious and just call. On the turn, if I check, he checks.
If you lead out you are representing anything from A9 to 66-AA and 99.9999999% of opponents will raise you there with QQ-AA. Only a complete rock will shutdown with AA because you lead the flop.

If you have AA and you raise preflop and someone leads into you on that board to you just call down? Fold? No, most people would opt to raise the flop bet and if get called your better opponents might check behind on the turn in which case you can value bet the river. Most opponents however just see their hand and can't resist betting the turn again (since they interpret your turn check as weakness) at which point they are committed.

Check raising the flop isnt bad though (especially if you have been checkraising a lot), most of the times you will get paid off that way too.
