JAY - ELLE MAGAZINE
Hi everyone, I found this at Funkin.com - hopefully we'll be able to get a scan up of it soon...
The current issue of Elle magazine (UK) has a one page article about Jay and some of the places he loves to wine and dine in the countryside - sometimes even going there on his helicopter! Part of the article, written after a visit to the Sir Charles Napier restaurant in Oxfordshire reads....
...I flew into the restaurant because they've got a helipad.
Are you serious?
Yeah, deadly serious. It's only five minutes by air from my house. Then I went on to see a friend in Herefordshire, which takes about 45 minutes. I started learning in January. I can fly solo, but I haven't got my full licence that allows me to take passengers without an instuctor yet.
The full page article can be found in the current issue of Elle magazine (UK).

There was also the following similar article as well...
Jay Kay swaps motors for rotors
Can't catch me now, you pesky snappers!
MegaStar says: ‘Come fly with me and I’ll punch ya lights out!’
With an estimated personal wealth of £40m, it’s no wonder Jamiroquai front-man Jay Kay has some expensive hobbies.
We all know about the fast cars, of course - the fines and driving bans made sure of that - but apparently it’s now time to look to the skies.
Because Jay has gone airborne.
According to Elle magazine, the funky short-fry singer has decided to skip the traffic with the use of his own helicopter. He comments about dining at Oxfordshire’s celebrated Sir Charles Napier restaurant – chosen, it appears, because “they’ve got a helipad”.
“It's only five minutes by air from my house,” revealed the big-hatted star.
“I started learning in January. I can fly solo, but I haven't got my full licence that allows me to take passengers without an instructor yet.”
Hmm, probably best, as we’d fear for their safety if the little man started having air rage.
