It’s hard for payware developers to find a reasonable way between realism and quality and the need to stay within a limited budget. A small ORBX airport for example quickly costs 15 USD and they haven’t circumvented any sim limitations like the mentioned fuel station. There are many payware airfields that have actually even better freeware counterparts available. Freeware developers work for fun and enjoyment, not for money and hence they have all the time they need. Since MSFS there have been many freeware airports that simply extend anything that is possible within a resonable payware price. I have around 50 addon airports installed in MSFS currently and only one is payware (ORBX CYLW). None of them is really worse of what payware developers offer.
