Track up.

I have both NEXRAD (actually WSI's NOWRAD) and traffic displayed on an
MX20. Combine these two with projected GPS course line and predicted
actual track while flying an IFR approach and IME track up provides a much
more intuitive situational picture.

I do not have to perform mental gymnastics of flipping the picture in my
head when scanning the MX20 during the approach.
