Livistona nitida, the Carnarvon Gorge cabbage palm,[1] is a species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is endemic to Queensland in Australia.[ Livistona nitida has a cream to yellow flowers, flowers from September to December, and fruits from November to March.[2] It is a functionally dioecious palm, growing to 35 m, with raised leaf scars.[2] The petioles of dead leaves persist for the first meter, but they shed higher up the stem.[2] The inflorescences are unbranched at the base, and extend beyond the limit of the crown, branching up to 4 orders.[2] The flowers are solitary or in clusters of 2-5 and have triangular sepals.[2] The fruit is globose (diameter 13–20 mm) and a glossy black.[2] It is found In the catchments of the Dawson, Comet and Burnett Rivers, and Carnarvon Gorge in Queensland.[2] It is abundant on the margins of streams and in flood plains but is also found near sandstone cliffs and gorges.[2 Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Livistona_nitida

Caravan made from a converted aircraft, Kalinga, Queensland

from State Library of Queensland

Vesna Verencevic said:
"This is an interesting one because it is a semi-trailer arrangement and both the prime mover and the caravan are made up of the aircraft. There were quite a few semi-trailer caravans built out of aircraft after the Second World War (see higher up this thread) but no other instances that we’ve seen where both the truck and trailer were bits of planes."
