It's called a fake

I'm willing to bet it's a pic taken from an upcoming Movie.  The flying wing concept is old technology ~1945.  But the application for Commercial airlines is unrealistic IMO.

Whats with all the sky bridges between the buildings in the background?

Like I said it think it's a movie pic.  Although the architecture looks very UAE or Suadi relevant. 

Most skybridges I've seen were in Hong Kong.
