Yes, this is normal. You have to keep your nose down to keep your speed up, then you will begin to catch up. You want to climb at "best climb speed" for your aircraft. This information can be found on the internet or here for most aircraft. You may also want to consult one of the "newb guides" for help as well.
It doesn't help that most missions have the AI blasting along at maximum speed all the time, it makes catching up very difficult.
