Narrative:
Event: opc database out of date. I was notified on nov/xg/00 that I had flown a flight with an opc database that was out-of-date on nov/xa/00. The database was dated sep/xg/00 to nov/xg/00. This event was inadvertent and unintentional. Sometimes we are all affected by 'hurry-up' syndrome, and I believe that may have contributed to this situation. To keep this event from happening again, I will be more diligent in my preflight duties, and try not to be influenced by the 'hurry-up' bug and rushing through my duties.
