You're right. The rule does say you have to start in a certain direction, such that your longest dimension is pointing towards the ceiling. Since the top of your flag holder is 51" off the ground, it should be guaranteed that this is the case. This only constrains two of your rotational degrees of freedom, so you're still free to rotate about the z-axis, and thus can start facing in any direction on the xy-plane.
