Well Chris the first thing I would do is see your terrain and water settings? I would put them on high(Yes you will lose a little bit of FPS but not much). Also your filtering could be like this.
Antrioscoptic
and Anti Aliasing will be on.
If this helps let me know.

You could read the sticky at the top of the page and that will help you alot. Nicks sticky is the bible for FSX just follow it to the letter and hey presto and very good looking FSX.

First, set your ground texture resolution to 1m, not 2m like in your current settings.
Second, set your level of detail radius to the max.
Third, set the filtering to Anisotropic, not bilinear.
Finally, you'll have to configure your video card (in Windows, not in FSX) to increase the texture filtering quality, and the Anisotropric Filtering level.

Well it worked better so far, just have to figure out why it gets herky-jerky when I am near a bunch of city/airport stuff.
At least I can see the Pentagon now, and some of the bridges that used to not show up.
All I have to do now is find the free down loads for KDCA, KLAX, KJFK, and figure out how to make MAI Work for Andrews AFB.

Might the high amount of Air Traffic you have be cause for the "herky-jerky" around the airports? From what I have read on here that can cause quite a hit.

also turn OFF light bloom - it's a frame killer. Follow Nick's Guide, and do NOT let FSX control AntiALiasing. Use nhancer and follow Nick's guide.
The way you are configured your system will slow down in dense areas.
Follow the guide word for word - no skipping around and you'll get great results.
