Thats not what I sent . Don't know what happened .  With all the
responses. it only proves someone out there is listening. I'll try again!
Has anyone out there had this experance? Yesterday I was flying at about
3000/ with outside temp at about 30 degrees and descovered that the cabin
air vent would not close.  I attempted for the first time, since buying
this aircraft to open the cabin heat control in flight.  On doing so I got
a lap full of water. There was enough to have a fellow pilot inquire, on
landing for fuel,  if I had a long trip and had an accident. 
The unexpected volume of fluid being ejected from under the instrument
panel,  to say the least scared the hell out of me. All I could think was
gasoline, the only normal possible source of fluid I could think of, from
this area. I finally relized it was only water after a careful smell test.
What I'am trying to figure out is how could that much water be retained in
the heat ducts.  There has been some heavy rain the past couple weeks but
shouldn't there be a drain in the duct system to avoid this. Could this
much water be turned to steam when passing the exhaust stacks or cause
same to rust out.  Any comments or fixes from any knowledgable parties
would be apreciated
