Well, the textures may have bugged out somehow... try fiddling with the texture and cloud detail sliders in the display settings, to try to force them to reload...

Also, did you install any addons prior to that? or did it start happening out of the blue? The textures might have become bugged due to some addon...

If all else fails, you might just have to take it and reinstall  ;)

Hope this helps

Cheers

Actually before considering a reinstall with FSX, try running the repair option using the installation discs. If textures have become mucked up this ought to fix the problem without a complete reinstallation.
