Our long-term goal is to have FlightGear FAA-approved as a flight

For what it's worth, ATC Flight Sim is currently producing and selling FAA
certified flight simulators that are largely based on FlightGear (combined
with some proprietary apps communicating over the network).  These sims have
an approval level that needs to be achieve for each individual simulator
installation.  So it doesn't really make sense to speak of FlightGear (or
any other simulator software) being FAA approved, rather it is the
combination of software, hardware, controls, panel, switches, display, etc.
that collectively must be FAA approved.
