Jet Aircraft Fuel Burn rates
 
Hi everyone,

I have been researching now for almost 2 hrs and there is alot of hay and very few needles. I am after afew basic fuel burn rates on acouple of jets, I am not too interested in per seat, per mile or per kg fuel burn rates, nor am I concerned about FL, weights, winds climbs or descents.
I am just after the basic avergae per hour tonne/gal the aircraft comsumes/burns. Please anyone with this knowlegde on the following:

A340-300
A330-300
B777-300 & 300ER
B747-400

Also the average figures on the NM they can cover would be fantastic, I have some of my own figures but I would just like to compare the pair.

Many thanks.

747-400

Take-off: 32T/hr
Climb to FL310: 8T
Initial cruise: 13T/hr
Mid-wt cruise: 10T/hr
End of cruise: 8T/hr
Desc and App: 3T

Overall average, about 11T/hr

Longest sector that I flew was SIN-LHR with strong headwinds which took 14hrs. Fuel burn about 155T.
GC distance 5900nm but airways routing probably 6000nm+

Hope this helps.
