It is usually part of the Airframe, Engine, or Propeller logbook.
Canadian and American Airworthiness Directives can be issued for component parts as well as for air frames.
Airworthiness describes an airplane which has been deemed safe to fly. In the US the FAA mandates that all aircraft are subject to certain airworthiness standards and issues airworthiness certificates which must be onboard when the plane flies. The FAA can and does revoke these airworthiness certificates for all sorts of reasons, and they must be renewed on a regular basis. The FAA also issues "airworthiness directives" (A/D's) which can require all of a certain make, model, or year of an aircraft to undergo a specific repair or inspection. These aircraft will not be issued an airworthiness certificate until these issues are fixed. If a particular model of aircraft was prone to suffering a specific type of failure, the FAA might issue an airworthiness directive to have all aircraft of the same type be modified to fix the flaw. Airworthiness can also describe a pilot. A pilot who is alert and sober and in good health can be said to be airworthy. Pilots are encouraged to look for and recognize signs of illness or bad temper in themselves and judge their own airworthiness before every flight.
In respects to certification of aircraft's airworthiness, Standard Airworthiness - utility, acrobatic, normal, transport, commuter. Under Special Airworthiness - experimental, provisional, primary, lightsport, restricted, limited.

FAA AD stands for Federal Aviation Administration Airworthiness Directive. It is a regulatory notice issued by the FAA to inform aircraft owners and operators about safety issues related to specific aircraft, engines, propellers, or other components. ADs provide mandatory instructions on inspections, repairs, or modifications that must be completed to ensure the continued airworthiness of the affected aircraft. Compliance with ADs is legally required to maintain safety standards in aviation.
Days lost under AW 107, which pertains to the Airworthiness Directive (AD) issued by aviation authorities, refer to the number of operational days an aircraft is grounded due to compliance with safety directives. AW 107 often involves inspections, repairs, or modifications required to ensure aircraft safety and airworthiness. These lost days can significantly impact airline operations and schedules, leading to financial implications for the operators. Tracking these days helps assess the efficiency of compliance processes and aircraft availability.

An airworthiness certificate indicates that the aircraft is safe to fly and complies with regulations. It includes the aircraft's registration number, type, serial number, and any limitations or conditions for its operation. This certificate must be displayed prominently in the aircraft.
