Narrative:
Cut and swedged in new hydraulic lines on right wing and I crossed the return and pressure lines. Unaware that I did it wrong, I sold the work to an inspector and avionics did their testing on the plane sent to terminal and the pilot caught the error before flight. I was told of the problem by co-workers on sep/xa/00 at XA30.
