For me it’s not so much the amount of learning that goes into ‘mastering’ study level planes. It’s the (perceived?) fact that they tend to be much harder on performance.
As an example, the Fokker F28 is practically unflyable unless I drastically reduce my graphics options, as it absolutely tanks my FPS. It’s a shame, really, because it’s an awesome model.
I’ve very concerned the same will be true of BlueBird’s upcoming 757 release. I am anxiously awaiting this one, but I’m also scared my system might not be able to handle it.

I strongly agree with the idea that all planes should come with a trial period, after which they become disabled without a purchased license key.
