Malcolm Island is the large island to the east.
Accidents and incidents
On 10 July 1969, a privately operated Douglas DC-3 N139D crashed on take-off due to the failure to remove control locks before flight was attempted. All 25 people on board survived. The aircraft was operating an international non-scheduled passenger flight to Duluth International Airport, Minnesota, United States.[2]
