Bri has already guessed it, but as a clue for everyone else it is an American aircraft.

Planegill's challenge...

Going out on a limb here, David, but could that be Peter Garrison's original Melmoth homebuilt from the seventies?

It is not a homebuilt. It was a factory prototype.

Early Grumman AA5 - but with a C/C instead of a yoke?

It is not a Swift or a Navion. A further clue, it is a jet aircraft.

Sorry, Not the T-37 or Jet Provost. This aircraft did not go into production. In fact I don't know if more than one was made. (Might have been two.)
