Actually it's not THAT unrealistic. Check out this A.net photo:

omg, how did the 747 recover from that
who took the shot? i imagine this had to be planned, i see it unlikely another plane happened to be on top like that

OK the A340, is infamous for its horrible climb rate, those hair dryers it calls engines dont help any. as for the 747 picture, its been discussed in the anet forums by the photographer, he gets a friend to hire out a plane and they then fly the LAX perimeter (with full atc permission) and he takes photos like these with a super zoom lense. Its all about the angle.
