Do you need an air brake endorsement to drive a cdl vehicle in MI?
Yes, in Michigan, you are required to have an air brake endorsement to drive a commercial vehicle with air brakes. This endorsement is obtained by passing a written knowledge test specifically for air brake systems.
What type of license do you need to drive a 18 passenger vehicle?
At a minimum, a Class C Commercial Drivers Licence with Passenger endorsement and no air brake restriction (if the vehicle is equipped with air brakes). If the vehicle has a GVWR of over 26,000 lbs (which is a bit unlikely with an 18 passenger vehicle), then a Class B CDL would be required, again with the Passenger endorsement and without a restriction on air brakes, if the vehicle were so equipped.
Do you need an air brake endorsement to drive a vehicle under 26000 pounds with air brakes in Florida?
Only if it's either designed to transport more than 15 persons (including the driver), or else carrying a quantity of hazardous materials which requires the display of placards under the FMCSR. In both instances, you would need at least a Class C CDL without an air brake restriction (there is no actual air brake endorsement), as well as a passenger endorsement (for a passenger bus) or hazardous materials endorsement.
Do you need a cdl license to drive a hire out school bus?
Yes, you do. You would need, depending on the vehicle weight, either a Class C CDL (for vehicles under 26,000 lbs) or Class B CDL (for vehicles over 26,000 lbs). If the vehicle was equipped with air brakes, you would have to take the written air brakes test and road test on a vehicle so equipped (there is no actual air brake endorsement - only a restriction), and you would need a "P" endorsement for passengers, or "S" endorsement if you actually were transporting children.

What can you drive with a school bus CDL in Pennsylvania?
There is no "school bus CDL". You either have a Class C or Class B CDL with a school bus endorsement. A Class C, you can drive any bus under 26,001 lbs. GVWR. If you get a hazmat endorsement, you can transport hazardous materials in any vehicle 26,000 lbs. GVWR or less. If you have a Class B, technically, you can drive any single vehicle with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of more than 26,000 lbs, but you're not going to get hired to drive a Class 8 with an unsynchronized manual transmission without any experience.
Can you drive an air brake vehicle that is under 26000 lb gross vehicle weight with an ordinary lincense?
So long as the weight rating of the vehicle doesn't exceed 26k, yes, with two exceptions - you would need a Class C (minimum) CDL with hazmat endorsement if the vehicle is transporting a quantity of hazardous materials which requires placards to be displayed, and you would need a Class C (minimum) CDL with passenger endorsement if it is a bus designed to transport more than 15 passengers (including the driver).

Do you need air brake endorsement to drive an air brake vehicle that is under 26000lb gross vehicle weight in New York State?
No. You can't get an air brake endorsement, because it doesn't exist. Non-commercial vehicles equipped with air brakes do not require the operator to have any familiarity with air brake systems (for better for worse). The only time it's applicable is in the case of CDL drivers, who are both required to complete and pass the written air brakes test and perform the road test in an air brake-equipped vehicle, or else they receive a restriction which prohibits them from operating an air brake-equipped commercial vehicle.
