Narrative:

After an emergency landing due to a complete hydraulic failure; I was escorted from the aircraft before noting the malfunction in the aircraft discrepancy log. Prior to the landing; I had been in direct contact with company maintenance personnel and they were informed of the nature of the malfunction. I also had a fairly strong level of certainty another crew wouldn't attempt to fly the aircraft before the malfunction was repaired; mostly because the aircraft was parked on a taxiway with its right main tire blown out. I was escorted from the aircraft to the FBO by airport authority personnel. Once there; I was instructed to duty off and leave the premises by dispatch. I didn't have any other contact with the aircraft after that. I made attempts to call my supervisors to inform them of the emergency situation. I received one email several hours later. If crews at my company had a series of clearly defined steps to follow in aftermath of an emergency; this oversight could have been prevented. In all of the confusion and rush following the event; I simply forgot to note the malfunction in the aircraft log; and no one in my company; including maintenance; noticed this until 6 days later.
