1. A fixture for an electro thermal fan inlet case of a gas turbine engine comprising: a housing assembly which defines a first slot along an axis, the housing assembly operable to receive a fairing and a respective strut of the electro thermal fan inlet case;a pressure bar assembly mounted to said housing assembly adjacent to said first slot for movement relative to said axis; anda bladder assembly mounted at least partially within said first slot, pressurization of said bladder assembly operable to exert a force on said fairing to clamp said fairing to said strut with said pressure bar assembly. 2. The fixture as recited in claim 1, wherein said bladder assembly is pressurized through a low flow orifice. 3. The fixture as recited in claim 2, wherein said low flow orifice assures pressure of at least one bladder of said bladder assembly while another bladder of said bladder assembly has failed in response to a pressure provided by a pressure source. 4. The fixture as recited in claim 3, wherein pressure source provides less than 100 psi or pressure. 5. The fixture as recited in claim 1, wherein said first bladder and said second bladder are pressurized through a respective low flow orifice. 6. The fixture as recited in claim 1, further comprising a multiple of pins which supports said first housing relative said second housing. 7. The fixture as recited in claim 1, further comprising at least one fastener which sets a distance of said first housing relative said second housing. 8. The fixture as recited in claim 7, further comprising a resilient member mounted about said at least one fastener, said resilient member located between said first housing relative said second housing to bias said first housing and said second housing away from said axis. 9. The fixture as recited in claim 1, wherein said first and second pressure bar each define a concentration surface. 10. The fixture as recited in claim 1, wherein said first and second pressure bar each are of a T-shape in lateral cross-section. 11. The fixture as recited in claim 1, wherein said fairing is a fan inlet shroud fairing (FISF). 12. The fixture as recited in claim 11, wherein said (FISF) is bonded to each strut generally along a FISF trailing edge. 13. A fixture comprising: a first housing which defines a first slot;a first bladder at least partially within said first slot;a first pressure bar movably mounted relative said first slot, said first pressure bar movable relative said axis in response to pressurization of said first bladder;a second housing which defines a second slot generally opposite said first slot along an axis;a second housing which defines a second slot generally opposite said first slot along an axis;a second bladder at least partially within said second slot; anda second pressure bar movably mounted relative said second slot, said second pressure bar movable relative said axis in response to pressurization of said second bladder. 14. A method of simultaneously bonding a multiple of fairings to a respective multiple of struts in a gas turbine engine case comprising: mounting a fixture assembly to each of the multiple of fairings which extend at least partially around a respective strut; andpressurizing a bladder assembly within each of the fixture assemblies to exert a force on the respective fairing. 15. A method as recited in claim 14, further comprising: exerting the force through a pressure bar assembly adjacent the bladder assembly. 16. A method as recited in claim 15, wherein pressurizing the bladder assembly further comprising: maintaining the pressure within the bladder assembly with a pressure source. 17. A method as recited in claim 14, wherein pressurizing the bladder assembly further comprising: pressurizing the bladder assembly through a low flow orifice.
