Hi, Flightgear does work on Windows 7.
However if you plan to compile frequently you have to be quite good in helping yourself, because compile problems may arise from time to time. Personally I found Windows quite nasty for compiling Flightgear myself because the large checkout needs ages of computer time for indexing -- for almost no use at all. Preventing this is not the only thing you will have to do to get an compelling compile performance. If you want to go straight to the point and compile out of the box: Use Linux. Much faster in update/compile/fly turnarounds. If you are willing to invest some of your energy into the compile platform: go ahead use Windows and Visual Studio.
