This data come from a study done at Stanford University looking at fuel consumption on various engines.

Don't shoot the messenger.
Not trying to shoot the messenger Turbine D, but there is a typo in there - surely somebody at Stanford put in the takeoff sfc for the GE engine by mistake? Otherwise it is twice as efficient as any other turbofan flying.
