Default baron info

Airnet sent me a little study guide to get ready for training but it left out any mention on the landing gear system on the baron. It does go on to say that the disc brakes are the only hydraulic system on the plane. So I was wondering how does the gear go up and down?

yeah thats the one good thing about the baron, its systems are stupidly simple so you have more time to spend on our company procedures and whatnot.
