Flight crew of an air carrier cargo large transport were notified 6 days after their flight that the aircraft they had completed their scheduled flight in had aborted takeoff apparently due to equipment discrepancies, and that the discrepancies had not been written up in the aircraft logbook. The reporting flight crew knew nothing of the discrepancies since they remembered leaving it in an airworthy condition.

Narrative:
On nov/thu/97, I served as first officer on aircraft large transport on a flight from ict to okc. The flight had no problems and the aircraft had no discrepancies. After the flight the aircraft was turned over to maintenance in an airworthy condition. On dec/thu/97, I heard from maintenance that the aircraft was left in an unairworthy condition and discrepancies should have been listed in the logbook. This is an untruth. The aircraft was in an airworthy condition. Supplemental information from acn 387298: 6 days later on dec/wed/97, I was notified that large transport was involved in an aborted takeoff.
