This jet was flying at the AirExpo in Minnesota this weekend.

Can someone confirm the identification for me?

Thanks in advance!

That's an Aero Vodochody L-39 Albatros. These were originally constructed as a trainer for the Soviet block contries. Aero Vodochody is from the Czech Republic. Evidently over 250 have ended up in the United States in private hands.
