"Lil" was the 25th of 18,482 B-24s built, and was manufactured at the Consolidated Aircraft Company plant in San Diego. This airplane was damaged in a landing accident in June of 1941 and spent the war carrying people and equipment between five airplane factories around the country.
In 1948 it was sold to a can company, then changed hands one more time before the Commemorative Air Force bought it in 1968.
