I don't have any of those figures, but from what I remember of a company I did some work for, in order for the plane to be efficient you needed to be carrying about 3000lbs of load and need to go more then 800 miles. Less then that in either sense and the plane just wasn't worth it.

From what I recall (and this is general, so probably not very helpful), it burns 450lbs it first hour and 350 each hour after that.
