Hi, Flightgear has a better perfomance than MSFs- much better, though we havn't that eye-candy like them. (well: to be honest- the graphic is not up to date compared to other sims....)
It might be that your computer is much to good for FlightGear and you have a framerate above 100 and more fps. Set the property /sim/frame-rate-throttle-hz to something the computers can deliver consistently. It is like the framerate-target in MSFS! The other possible cause could be, that your OpenGL-driver isn't uptodate. FlightGear uses OpenGL instead of DirectX...
