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?

From what I have read I believe most Canadian provinces require an air brake endorsement. In the US there are states such as CA and ID that don't even require a special driver's license to operate a coach weighing 26,001+ lbs, let alone issue an air brake endorsement.
I reside in NV and while I have a non commercial Class B and was tested on my air brake knowledge, I was not issued an endorsement.
Bottom line is an air brake endorsement and/or special license requirements vary by state.
When I received my Nevada Non commercial class "B", The examiner said "You will have the Air Brake endorsement, unless we specifically exclude Air brakes".

I believe he may have been talking about "Restrictions". What does the back of your license after "Endorsements" say? If it's like mine it will read "None". The only Restriction I have is A (now B) - Corrective Lenses. If I didn't complete the air brake written and inspection test, I would have another Restriction that would say something like "No air brakes".
