Does your home jurisdiction require air brake endorsement?
Are there jurisdictions about the continent that allow people to drive air brake equipped vehicles without any type of training or license endorsement?

Seems to be some confusion here. A CDL is a Commercial Drivers License. I guess a Non commercial CDL is a non commercial commercial drivers license. Now that makes a lot of sense right there don't it....I have no special license and my DP has air brakes can someone explain why you need an air brake endorsement?I have been stopping for 50+ years with air brakes and have never had this endorsement. Will it make me stop better? Sounds like a user tax to me!
While having the endorsement, may not make a difference in your stopping ability, at least in my case I thought what I learned about the system in a one day course was well worth it.
While the one day course didn't make me an expert, it did give me an understanding off how the system works and that in itself was well worth it.
Also Alberta does require the airbrake endorsement
