"In the event of turbulence the gear handle is selected back to UP to provide hydraulic up pressure to reduce structural loads on the mechanical uplocks."
This has to be a new one. I wonder if you do that at FL 390 at .79 in a 737 NG. Or any other Boeing for that matter. And when the turbulence stops you put it back to OFF ?
