Air brakes have absolutely NO affect in determining whether or not a vehicle requires a CDL. The need for a CDL is determined by Gross Vehicle Weight Rating/Gross Combined Weight Rating, the presence of hazardous materials, and the number of passengers the vehicle is designed to transport.
Depending on year, the GVW of that truck may be anywhere from 21,000 to 26,500 lbs. If the GVW is in excess of 26,000 lbs. and it's registered as such, a CDL is required.
If it's a bus designed to transport more than 15 persons (including the driver), a CDL is required, regardless of weight rating, along with a passenger endorsement.
If it's a vehicle transporting a quantity of hazardous materials which requires placards to be displayed in accordance with CFR49 regulations, a CDL and hazmat endorsement is required, regardless of weight rating.
