If you like to tool around IFR, the combination is perfect. I use the WAC
for IFR GPS direct work. I can fly around the SE US (except for FL) using
nothing else when IFR. A lot less chart flipping with the WAC - even in my
slow steed.

But you need the Sectionals for VFR around the Class B/C

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

Try to Howie Keefes Aircharts... I have used every chart type/service
out there at one time or another, and Howie wins hands down, 95% of the
time...

Most of my students transition from sectionals to WACs at about 800-1000
hours PIC and never look back. Howie Keefe's stuff is really good,
especially as he reprints the terminal area and Class B charts in the back.
I've never needed anything but these and the frequency info in the GPS.
