I have heard various things about landing there.... for example you
land
uphill on runway 03 but take-off downhill on 21 - then I heard you can
land
and take-off from either.


Which is true ?


Thanks

What you have described is the normal practice at Sedona, assuming light
winds. But both runway ends are available for either takeoff or landing
if necessary. Landing on 3 and taking off on 21 is easier with respect
to the runway slope and also the surrounding terrain. Enjoy your trip.
It's a beautiful place.

I have seen on youtube some very long straight in approaches to 03
