CTOnews.com, July 16, according to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Mark Zuckerberg, founder and CEO of Meta, received a pilot's certificate earlier this year, which means he is learning to fly a plane. If Zuckerberg can get a flight license, he will join other tech enthusiasts such as Tesla's Elon Musk, OpenAI's Sam Altman and Snap's Evan Spiegel.

It is reported that Musk once owned and flew a variety of aircraft, including fighter planes, but later gave up this hobby. "Unfortunately, I don't fly planes anymore," Musk told the Washington Post in September 2008. I have to work when I fly, and I have too many ideas in my head to give enough attention to flying-I am sometimes absent-minded, which is a very bad habit for a pilot. "

CTOnews.com noted that in addition to flying, Zuckerberg has recently been trained in Brazilian jujitsu and mixed combat, saying he uses exercise as a way to "reset" his body.

Zuckerberg's jujitsu skills attracted Musk's attention, who said on Twitter that he was willing to have a "cage showdown" with him, after Meta launched its "Twitter killer"-Threads. Dana White, president of the Ultimate fighting Championship (UFC), said the two were "very serious" and wanted to make the game a reality.
