W-7?

Aerofiles describes a Collins W-7 Dipper aircraft made with the hull from 1948 Aqua II, not a Cessna 150 and the photo it links to shows a very different aircraft that this one. Either Aerofiles has some serious errors or else we have two different aircraft here. Aerofiles quotes a registration of N25WC, which shows up on the FAA registry as a Collins W-7 Dipper that was registered in 1978 and destroyed in 2001. Neither of the aircraft photos have enough resolution to match a registration and solve this mystery. - Ahunt (talk) 13:05, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
