Formula 1 ace Jenson Button test drives new career as British Airways pilot

Former F1 World Champion Jenson Button raced through the skies earlier this week after testing out the new British Airways flight simulator at Heathrow Airport in London.

The Englishman – who retired from Formula One after the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix in November – spent nearly two hours learning the skills of flying with one of the world’s largest commercial aircrafts.
