What happens with all the Advanced Class licensees who worked
hard to get where they are? Do they just become general class or
are they given Extra Class licenses because the tests they had to take
at the FCC field office were harder than the extra class license of today
and and had to pass a higher code test than required today?
I am not familiar with the plan the FCC has but it will be interesting to
see if the advanced class is treated fairly.

You will be grandfathered to Extra Class. :-)

The FCC dropped the Advanced as a new ticket but retained present
holders- and could be renewed. This way they don't. You finally get
what you really earned by taking the older test.
