المستخلص

This article discusses the estimation of parameters of the flexible Weibull (FW) distribution using the ML method based on type I censored sample.The Monte Carlo method is used to generate samples of different sizes from this distribution.The bias,MSE,the sample information matrix and the distribution of the estimates are also obtained. Concluding remarks regarding the results are provided.
