Aarakocra were initially given longer lifespans in AD&D. Wasn’t consistent across editions, either being comparable to humans (Fighters/Rogues starting at 14-15, Fighter/Rogues starting at 21, and Clerics starting at 30+5d6 years old), or similar to humans but with a younger adult state and earlier-but-longer venerable/old state into 160ish. It’s funny how it’s gone from that to “dead before they can become clerics.”
They’re fun while they last tho. RIP Cocky Tracey.
Every Aaracokra I’ve ever heard of has been a force of absolute chaos. They’re like the hamsters of D&D

I uphold your stereotype
A friend of mine played an aaracokra who, in the first session, died tripping on some barbed wire and sold his soul to a spaghetti god.
