If you like to tool around C and B airspace VFR you won't like the WAC.
It doesn't show you the entire wedding cake. It just shows you the
outer area, it doesn't show you the side area at all.

I currently subscribe to the Airchart IFR and sectional service. I

looking at changing to the WAC and IFR service.

What exactly is the difference between the WAC and sectional charts?
Do the WACs show all the MOAs/restricted/etc areas? Are all the same
airports listed?

Thanks

The Aircharts have all the Class B and Class C areas on sectionals in
the back.

What do you mean by "air chart"? I'm looking at a 1994 WAC CG-21, which covers
the area from Philadelphia to most of South Carolina. It does not have anything
special for the Class B and C airports. Is this something new in the last 10
years?

He who would distinguish what is true from what is false must have an
adequate understanding of truth and falsehood.

He is referring to a commerical product that comes in a big book. It has
the entire US in WAC charts, with Sectional detail of all Class C and
B airspace. It is updated by subscription.

They also sell sectional charts in big books (east and west versions) as
well as IFR LO charts for the whole country.
