    Gotta wonder how much a kite would add in terms of lowering the fuel usage really though, doesn’t seem like it would make much of dent.

    The article says 20%. It’s even included in the excerpt copied to this thread…

      Good to see that Lemmy has just as good reading comprehension as Reddit lol. Would love to see a click through rate for posts to see how many people just open straight to the comments without reading the linked article.
