Flightgear missing is bug 1591115 which is fixed in xenial-proposed and
will be fixed in xenial-updates soon (probably this week).
non-graphical programs missing from the Software app is probably bug
1553211. It's a design decision for the Ubuntu Software/GNOME Software
app to only show graphical "apps."

Title:
Software Center only provides a subset of software available in repos
Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I needed to re-install recordmydesktop for some debug usage and opened
up the Software Center in Xenial and attempted to do so.
Searches for 'recordmydesktop' in the software-center returned
nothing, as the screenshot shows.
However, it's plainly available if you do an apt-cache search:
bladernr@galactica:~$ apt-cache search recordmydesktop
gtk-recordmydesktop - Graphical frontend for recordMyDesktop screencast tool
recordmydesktop - Captures audio-video data of a Linux desktop session
So it seems that the software-center is not aware of some things
(maybe only in Universe?)
