In this paper, based on an adaptive Type-II progressive censoring scheme, estimation of flexible Weibull extension-Burr XII distribution is discussed. Maximum likelihood estimation and asymptotic confidence intervals of the unknown parameters are obtained. The adaptive Metropolis (AM) method is applied to carry out a Bayesian estimation procedure under symmetric and asymmetric loss functions and calculate the credible intervals. A simulation study is carried out to assess the performance of the estimators. Finally, a real life data set is used for illustration purpose.
