This thesis considers estimation of the quantiles of the smallest extreme value distribution, sometimes referred to as the log - Weibull distribution. The estimators considered are linear combinations of two order statistics. A table of the best linear estimates (BLUE's) is presented for sample sizes two through twenty. These estimators are compared to the asymptotic estimators of Kubat and Epstein (1980).
