Bilinear filtering samples the textures better than no filtering but may introduce flickering in the distance or on edges with textures.

Trilinear filtering is the highest level of texture filtering and reduces flickering considerably (however, not all graphics cards can handle this option correctly). The difference between bilinear and trilinear filtering is most noticeable when you're moving in Flight Simulator.


This is an article from FSinsider.com, it also has a lot of info on all the other settings. Hope that helps. ;)
