It's probably best to start with gprof. Add a "-pg" argument to the compiler flags for the application, run it, and then use the "gprof" program to eamine the resulting "gmon.out" file. Note that performance tuning is a black art, and that the numbers you see are going to be lying to you in subtle ways, especially if you have the optimizer turned on. And you probably aren't going to be able to use it to profile a real time application (like FlightGear) very well at all.
