Yes, I remember the 212 christened 'Limau Besar' (not 'lemau') which indeed is 'Big Lemon' in the Malay and Indonesian languages. But despite this, if I remember correctly, it was an IHAC (Iranian Helicopter Aviation Company, i.e. Bristow in Iran) helicopter and it was given this name for being a problematical helicopter by the sizable group of ex-Duri (Bristow Masayu, i.e. Bristow in Indonesia) engineers that were on that particular contract. But, for the life of me I can't remember the registration (EP-H__) or the contract.
