				There is a honeycomb stiffener on the inside front of the upper  
 cowling doors that has partially de-bonded from the skin on my 75  
 Tiger.  I assume there is a simple way to re-bond them or is this  
 best done with rivets or some other technique?
 
 Thanks all.

				I believe there is a factory approved method for repairing this particular 
 debond.  As I recall, the repair method is either in a SB or in the 
 maintenance manual. Check with Fletchair for a copy of the SB or Gary will 
 probably know....

				I have sent the upper cowling to Fletcher to have it repaired in the 
 past.  I tried one many, many years ag.  It never came back, so, I 
 assume it never debonded again.  I used a metal to metal bonding agent 
 used by the Experimental guys.  I don't rmember what it was.
 
 I have a complete upper cowling from my 78 Tiger that I'd sell for 
 $1500.  It is in very good condition.  It has a very nice 3-color Imron 
 paint job on it too.  Although, I doubt it would match your paint.
