Fuel flow rates for Take off can vary, the lowest reduced power take off setting (81% TQ) will be quite different from a Normal Take off (90% TQ).

Also for cruise, it varies if you use High speed cruise/intermediate speed cruise, also dependant on gross weight, ISA deviation etc.

For example at 22,000kgs at intermediate speed cruise, total fuel flow will be around 840Kgs/hr, at 28,000Kgs, high speed cruise it will be approx 1100Kgs/Hr.

Send me a PM if you want and I can look up the exact figures from the AFM later.
