North up.

I used to do a lot of intense pilotage (cc soaring) and found my self
turning it to orient along flight path. Over time, I stopped doing it. But
a line on the chart seemed mandatory to keep it all together.

Then there was GPS...

I have been advised that some people when using a sectional always hold it
with North up even when they are flying South rather than orienting it

along
their flight path. This is an option on moving map GPS systems.

Do you a) keep North up or b) orient the map in the direction in which you
are flying?

TIA
