Narrative:
I am in receipt of a company safety report that indicates that a taxiing aircraft directed jetblast toward parking spot X at ind. Resulting damage was minor. It appears from the time and date from the report that it was not my aircraft as the report was dated hours before my blockout. During pushback, engine start, and subsequent taxi, all standard company callouts, signals, and procedures were used in proper sequence and in accordance with company directives. Taxi signals and power settings were in accordance with company established and published procedures. We maintained an outside awareness in accordance with procedure.
