I just read your April 2025 Scenery Development Update and I'm excited that a new Gatwick is in the pipeline. However as far as I read it'll be for MSFS2024 only which is a bummer. I'm using MSFS2020 and don't plan on switching so any scenery that's for MSFS2024 only is not for me. That's why I'm asking, will there be an MSFS2020 version of this scenery?
I don't think I'm the only one on this, as seen in the Navigraph survey MSFS2020 still has over twice as many users as MSFS2024. Lots of people plan on sticking to MSFS2020, I'm one of them. I don't have a written source for this, but from what I heard from various developers who develop for both platforms is that the MSFS2020 versions of their products sell better than the MSFS2024 versions.
So once again I'm asking, will the new IniBuilds Gatwick that's in development also be for MSFS2020? I don't mind if you develop an MSFS2024 version too, I just won't buy it. But if there's an MSFS2020 version it's an instant sale.
When Navigraph was asking these questions to us, it was in bad timing because MSFS 2024 was already just out and about to release SU1. I was one that said I was using MSFS 2020, and I was. Shortly thereafter, I bought MSFS 2024 and never looked back, especially when SU 1 came out.
Navigraph’s survey information was already outdated since they published it to the public. PMDG, IniBuilds and many more airplane and scenery creators know more what they sell then the public in general.
MSFS 2024 users have grown exponentially since SU1. And I am one of them. The survey answers are outdated, and that’s the reality. They asked the questions in a wrong moment.
Just my two cents.

Reply below. Missed the quote above.
Will Gatwick be available for MSFS2020?

From forums , YouTube and from different very well known developers. You don’t have to look much to see that most developers are leaving MSFS2020 for 2024. IniBuilds is one, PMDG, Aerosoft, and very soon you will see FENIX, and others do the same. Just wait till SU2 releases to the public. More will follow. Many I know are waiting for the likes of PMDG to move its products to MSFS2024. And they have already started.
