    Therre is no such thing as an air brake endorsement in the states. Therefore no CDl is required solely because of air brakes.

    hauling a case 580

    The seller is an idiot. If the GVWR of the truck + the GVWR of the trailer = More than 26k it will require a Class A CDL.( If the trailer is over 10k) Air brakes or the lack of doesn't dictate what type or class of license you will need.
