In 1951, the Continental Can Company built a large timber hangar at Morristown to house its executive Liberator Express. Barely visible in this photo is the company's logo on the forward fuselage. The aircraft went to Mexico as XC-CAY in 1959, and became the Confederate Air Force's N12905 Diamond Lil in 1968. It was reregistered as N24927 in 1990 and was still flying as such by 2019.
