> Concorde burned 52% of its fuel just taxiing and taking off

and later in the article:

> Remember, Concorde burned 52% of its fuel just taxiing down the runway.

Setting aside that these are completely different claims, the author does not cite this claim at all and it fails my personal gut check. Where is this information coming from?
