Let's take a closer look.
I believe we're looking towards downtown from the southeast...right?  .....So much has changed!
Also..how do you think this slide was taken? Is the jetliner superimposed over an image of downtown Los Angeles? .... I ask because the wings look almost transparent.

I think it's probably real and was shot from a spotter plan trailing the DC-8. The shadows on the plane and ground match. I think the transparency of the wings is just an optical illusion. Many of the buildings in the foreground are still there.
