FlightGear's graphics are built on top of the plib ssg scene graph library. ssg has the ability to load open-flight models (at least if they are of a more recent version.) FlightGear makes some assumptions about the coordinate systems, and division and tiling of the terrain, but many of these issues could likely be worked around with a little bit of thought.
