To cover the same material an Extra has covered today ("similar
difficulty"), your new test would have to include the material covered
in
all three current tests (with over 120 questions in one sitting).
I expect it would be a longer test than todays Extra, but probably not 120
questions (since some things, like band segments for example, would be the
same as for the learner-permit level), and perhaps not necessarily in one
sitting -- could be structured to be taken in 2 (or 3?) sessions for those
who are intimidated by lengthy exams or have weak bladders.
My Extra exam was 100 questions. You were allowed 3.5 hours to complete
it.

Maybe I missed a post somewhere. What would be the difference,
other than name, between a Class A and the Extra? If the
only difference is the name, why would any Extra waste time
to pass a class A test whenit buys them nothing?
Also, why would the FCC want to maintain the name difference
in their database if that is all it is?
Cheers,
