Narrative:
I did a cabin walk-through per maintenance technician to insure that there were no tools or other items left on aircraft. At the time we looked through the aircraft, there were no tools on board. The aircraft sat in the hangar open and with a stand up to the door from XA15 until XE15, at which time it was moved to the gate. I have no idea how many people were in and out of the aircraft after XA15.
