Narrative:

I accomplished a section of the maintenance manual 05-96-02 on aircraft xyz, dec/fri/99 to the best of my ability. It's been brought to my attention that the card may have been written incorrectly. That would have affected the 'checks' performed. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: the reporter stated the maintenance manual chapter 5 did not have a sideload conditional check for the aircraft after being pulled from the mud. The reporter said a dragged pod conditional check was accomplished. The reporter said the dragged pod conditional check was fairly intensive and everything that needed checking was accomplished.
