Hi Mike,
 
In my experience, it makes no noticeable difference. 
As to "preference", I think it depends upon:
 
1) Does the winding device run clockwise or counterclockwise?
2) Is the wire fed over or under the coil form?
3) Is the person doing the winding right-handed, or left-handed?
 
If you're driving multiple secondaries from the same source,  phasing might 
have an effect.

If I wind a right  handed flat spiral primary, does the helical secondary 
also need to be right  handed?  Or does winding direction even matter? What 
winding direction do  most coilers prefer?

Mike  Giblin
