I teach track up. I would have you rotate your paper charts so they
show track up. I think its much less confusing.

My primary instructor tried that one on me. I pointed out to him that I
like north up because then it is easier to read the text on the chart.
He thought I wouldn't be able to correlate the chart to the outside. I
showed him I could.

I basically told him to let me do it my way or I'd find another instructor.

By the way, to answer the original posters question, I'm a north-up guy.
All the really cool pilots are north-up.
