No. The shadow is on the left out of frame. Look at the shadow from the bridge.
The plane is also banked, it's turning.
This means as the camera moves around the plane we continue to see the plane from same angle - this adds to the illusion since it makes the plane look much further away.
To me it looks like the shadow from the bridge is a lot more vertical than would be needed to cast an airplane shadow off frame. To truly figure it out this would require tracking some points to find out where the plane actually is in relation and measuring its size against cars on the bridge. Way too much effort.
