Fladda-chùain, or Fladaigh Chùain, is an island of the Inner Hebrides north of the Trotternish peninsula of Skye.

[2] The last known inhabitant was known as "Am Muileach Mòr", which means either "the Big Mullman", or the "man of the headland".

After the grounding the submarine re-surfaced and proceeded to the Faslane base by surface transit.

[6] The main cause of the accident was reported as being the use of tracing paper to cover the navigational chart to protect it from being written on, so obscuring vital information.

[7] A few hundred metres to the south lie the islets of Gaeilavore, Gearran and Am Bord (Lord Macdonald's Table).
