Meanwhile I filed it as https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=217047 and there is a comment in the PR about trying: "... native joystick support in games/flighgear rather than emulating keyboard+mouse via xf86-input-joystick, joytran, antimicro, etc.? See /usr/local/share/flightgear/Input/Joysticks/ThrustMaster/" I will give it a try when I can put hands again on my sons laptop.
