It becomes even riskier when a competitor is set to do the same thing and the market is unlikely to sustain two rival products . This may appear to be the ration-ale behind the Boeing Company's much-publicized cancellation of the development of its "superjumbo," a whole new class of aircraft with room for 500 to 1,000 passengers.
