Does the airbrake put it's force on the center of gravity of the
plane? If not, how does the pilot compensate for the force?

In some airplanes there is a cable interconnect between the airbrake and the
elevators that will compensate for pitching moments caused by the airbrakes.
Otherwise the pilot simply uses the stick/yoke to compensate for small changes.
After a pilot has flown a particular airplane type for a while, he naturally
adjusts when he uses the airbrakes.
