The L-39 doesn't have any particular cahracteristics that make it any less safe than any other small ex-military jet.
It's correct to say that it's relatively tame but it's also
worth pointing out that the speed envelope is somewhat higher than a piston fighter type hence when something goes wrong it happens quicker.
