Well, that same aircraft has had extensive modifications during its lifespan; the technology and the regulations have changed in those +30 years and, certainly, people have come up with new ways to save fuel, hence new procedures.

I still concur with those who say it's not necessary to have gear pins and covers checked every time in a NB aircraft doing 30 min turnarounds...
