Staying current with knowledge
 

With so much knowledge and information to know and retain, what are some ways you users stay current and up to date with flight knowledge? There have been a lot of rainy days here in Michigan, and I have been just browsing through books getting ready for a CFI check ride, but I am curious how others on here retain, and stay current with the abundant amount of information out there. I know this forum helps me out a lot.

In my last few instructing jobs (Chief Flying Instructor or multi IFR etc) every 6 months to a year I'd read the rules & regs from cover to cover.

I'd start with the Act, then the Regulations then the Orders then the AIP then the approach plate documentation.

In the USA I suppose that would just be the FAR/AIMs?
