Dancing doors. That's a new term I hadn't heard.

Incident: Jazz DH8C enroute on Jul 21st 2011, gear doors "dancing"

An Air Canada Jazz de Havilland Dash 8-300, registration C-GLTA performing flight QK-8279 from Prince Rupert,BC to Vancouver,BC (Canada) with 41 people on board, was enroute when the crew advised the gear doors kept cycling and the anti skid caution light was on. The crew continued the flight to Vancouver, during approach the gear extended normally. The aircraft landed safely with emergency services on stand by about 1:40 hours after departure.

The Canadian TSB reported the Proximity Switch Electronic Unit (PSEU) was replaced, gear swings conducted and the airplane returned to service.
