Narrative

ON SEP/THU/05 AT XD00 I WAS NOTIFIED BY MY MGR THAT A REVIEW OF RECORDS FOR ACFT X INDICATED AN OPEN WORK ORDER AFTER THE ACFT HAD BEEN RETURNED TO SVC 4 WKS AGO BY MYSELF. THE CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER OF EVENTS CONCERNING RETURN TO SVC ARE AS FOLLOWS: AT XA00 I ARRIVED TO WORK ON OVERTIME IN ANTICIPATION OF HAVING TO RELEASE ACFT X. I TIED IN WITH THE SHIFT INSPECTOR WHO INFORMED ME THAT THE ACFT AND PAPERWORK LEFT TO BE COMPLETED LOOKED GOOD FOR AN XB00 RETURN TO SVC RELEASE. FROM XA00-XB00 MAINT PERSONNEL FINISHED ALL WORK AND PAPERWORK ON THE ACFT (THAT WE WERE AWARE OF). DURING THIS TIME AS THE WORK WAS BEING COMPLETED; IT WAS GOING DIRECTLY TO THE AUDIT/RECORDS TECHNICIAN WHO WAS AUDITING; TALLYING; AND PUTTING THE RECORDS IN BINDERS. JUST PRIOR TO XB00 THE RECORDS TECHNICIAN INFORMED ME THAT ALL PAPERWORK WAS ACCOUNTED FOR AND TALLIES WERE COMPLETE. I THEN WENT THROUGH THE TALLIES AND STAMPED THEM AS COMPLETE (NOT REALIZING AN OPEN BLOCK). I THEN RETURNED THE ACFT TO SVC IN THE LOGBOOK AT XB00.
