Default A/C Duct on driver side 1970

It appears that the air duct is suppose to, or at least appears that it has to, run under the steering column? It doesn't leave much room for your feet to operate the pedals. Is this normal?

Hells bells Sully, my size 9's hit it all the time. It's even worse if you have a mis-shapen duct. Mine doesn't fit snugly into the main duct so it hangs lower in the front. Thank goodness for duct tape.

Now don't you guys tell anyone I did that. :o
