Note that the sole purpose of a WDH is to shift weight from the rear axle of the TV to the front axle of the TV and the trailer axle. This is important because a heavy rear axle and light front axle on the TV can cause poor steering control, which can quickly lead to an accident.

The sole purpose of airbags is to lift the rear end or stiffen the ride. It does NOTHING to shift any weight. You need a WDH to shift weight, not simply to raise the rear end.
