Hmm FlightGear runs in fullscreen mode just fine :-)

all you have to do is request fullscreen mode from GLUT

This should get you a fullscreen window that matches the
current display settings on Win32

int FullScreenGlutInitWin32( int *argc, char **argv ) 
{
    glutInitDisplayMode( GLUT_RGB | GLUT_DEPTH | GLUT_DOUBLE );

#ifndef ENUM_CURRENT_SETTINGS
#define ENUM_CURRENT_SETTINGS       ((DWORD)-1)
#define ENUM_REGISTRY_SETTINGS      ((DWORD)-2)
#endif

    DEVMODE dm;
    dm.dmSize = sizeof(DEVMODE);
    EnumDisplaySettings(NULL, ENUM_CURRENT_SETTINGS, &dm);

    sprintf( game_mode_str, "%dx%d:%d@%d",
		 dm.dmPelsWidth,
		 dm.dmPelsHeight,
		 dm.dmBitsPerPel,
		 dm.dmDisplayFrequency );
	
    glutGameModeString( game_mode_str );
    glutEnterGameMode();
}
