I've been flying my -7A for 4 years and kept it in a hangar until the the last 8 months. After moving to a new location in TN where hangars aren't available, I've kept it tied down on the ramp.
Today, I removed the seats and forward floor pans that cover the spars and sticks. Inside was puddled water between all of the ribs under the seats. After soaking it up and mopping it out, it amounted to over 32 ounces (1 quart) of water.
The bottom of the cabin is a continuous sheet of aluminum. The plans didn't specify any drain holes.
Anybody with a similar experience? Where did you drill drain holes?
