On a similar note... does anyone know where I could find some kind of
"AD log" downloadable form I could use to print off some blank copies
to attach into my airframe logbook? The prior owner of the airplane had
stapled some hand-made sheets to the back cover of the logbook to
contain AD compliance entries, its last empty sheet is about half
filled up already and I'd like to tidy up this home-made AD logs
section with something that'll look better and be easier to manage and
trace the history thru for the future AD compliance entries.

I'd like to find a format that has columns for all the AD-specific
stuff like AD number and date issued/superceeded, description, hours
and date complied with, when it's due for next inspection, etc for
recurring ADs, that kind of thing. Surely somebody has made one
somewhere and placed it on the web, but I haven;t been able to find one
yet.
