Heh, aim lower.  You don't learn data structures by writing an
optimizing compiler, and you can't learn 3D programming (and linear
algebra, and newtonian physics, for that matter) by writing a flight
simulator.  Even "just" drawing the horizon is a rather involved
affair, I'm afraid.

I'd strongly suggest you take a look at the myriad OpenGL tutorials
available on the web (http://www.opengl.org is a great place to
start).  They will get you started without overwhelming you.
