Narrative:
It has come to my attention on sep/fri/02 via phone call from chief pilot of the dfw flight office that a B737 sitting on the hard stand behind departure gate incurred damage from a maintenance stand of some sort that was supposedly moved by my aircraft's jetblast as we taxied away after our pushback from gate. I have no knowledge of this event happening nor was I told anything about it from my push crew or ramp tower before, during, or after the supposed incident occurred. To the best of my memory, the pushback was normal and the power settings during taxi were well within the operating manual limits. I do not recall ever being told of another aircraft in the vicinity of mine by either my push crew or ramp tower. For the record, I had no knowledge of this event happening until being notified by my chief pilot.
