begun detaining and forcing Syrian pilots to train militant fighters to fly stolen aircraft.

And that will be the surest way to destroy their air force that I can think of.

When I got back from Vietnam, I went to a pilot training base. We had student pilots (Muzzies) from Iran, the best of the best Iran could offer. 99.9% of them could not fly airplanes to save their a$$es. The Iraqi Air Force was no match for American pilots. I doubt that ISIS pilots would fare any better.
