There isn't an air brake endorsement. If you haven't completed and passed the written air brakes test at the DMV and conducted your road test in an air brake equipped CMV, then you have a restriction prohibiting you from operating a CMV equipped with air brakes. You take the written test and do the road test in an air brake equipped vehicle.
