True, provided that the particular checklist actually addresses the issue.
Again, it would be interesting if any KingAir-100 pilots would chime in with the written procedures. I've never flown a Beech/Raytheon turboprop, but I have flown several aircraft that do not make a recommendation (for configuration) either way, and those that do, recommended leaving the functional gear down.
