Civilians report seeing the fighter planes taking off and landing at the captured airport, which would probably indicate flight training.
ISIS also captured a munitions depot, in case you were wondering, which may include surface to air missiles.
The jets, possibly Mig 21 or MiG 23 models, were seized from military airports in Aleppo and Raqqa.
The training is going on at the Jarrah military airport, east of Allepo.
