Originally 41+14 with the West German Air Force, (German Air Force from 1990), the aircraft was civilianised as N14XA in May 2005. In June 2006 it was sold to Top Aces Consulting Inc. in Canada as C-GCTA but restored to N14XA in December 2015. In May 2018 it returned to the Canadian register, but this time as C-FTAE, for Top Aces Consulting Inc. and was still operated by them at the time of posting.

This Alpha Jet was originally imported as C-GCTA in 2006 but went back on the FAA register in 2015 as N14XA. It returned in mid-2018 but by then the old marks had been used so it became as above instead.

Originally imported as C-GCTA in June 2006 (ex N14XA, 4014), exported as N14XA in December 2015 and re-imported as C-FTAE in May 2018. The word 'Aces' has been crudely obliterated on the fin which likely happened on export.
