fuel burn figures and loads are customer specific as far as i know... also they vary for the engine type and the software loaded for the engines as per the customer issue and as well as the standard engine manufacturer issue

Thanks for an honest answer......

BTW on looking at your response, i feel like quoting an epithet in your favour:

For when the great scorer comes, to write against your name,

He writes not that you won, or lost, But how you played the game.

Write to AI/IA Ops engg and ask them for archived data on aircraft not in service, they should not have a problem doing so, you might have to get to know the manager personally if you want it pronto. Some of these blokes are from IIT aerospace engg and will try to help. If you are in mumbai try contacting Mr Shrikanth Jogalekar or Anil Sheode from AI-Engg both are IITians they might oblige. Alternatively if you have access thru college to online resource databanks look in aerospace you might find some data. A industry journal called ''Aircraft tech & engg maintenance'' these guys regularly have articles on fuel burn, engine management etc, engg & maint related mainly
