We also give a characterization of flexible Weibull distribution by using the recurrence relations for single moments. http://pubs.sciepub.com/ajams/2/3/13/ajams-2-3-13.pdf order statistics single moments product moments k-th upper record values recurrence relations flexible Weibull distribution characterization
