Lighting and composition are spot on, but the blur is off. A) It's too "defined" and B) both objects can't be blurred. Your "camera lens" is either following the airplane, in which case the background would be blurred, or it's stationary, in which case the glider would be blurred.

Like I said, composition wise, it's awesome...with some tweaking you'd have a much better shot!

Sure they can both be blurred... Think about what happens if the camera isn't still nor following the plane.

As a photographer who has been using cameras for the better part of 15 years, I assure you. A camera can not be both stationary and moving.

Sure, you could pan the camera counteractively, that is, against the motion of the aircraft, which would blur both subjects, however not one to TRY to blur photos so far out of focus they're incomprehendible, it wouldn't make much sense to do so.

I would agree with Hype about the Lighting and composition, but the blur is off.
If they are both blurred, they wouldn't be both blurred the same.
As an example;
If you are following the plane with your camera, the background would tend to be blurry, but if, as you are following the plane, you are not locked on to it (ie. shaky hands, adjusting center etc.) the plane would also be blurry, just not as blurry as the background.
It's just a matter of perspective.
