If you fly due south would you reach the north pole?
No. If you fly due south, you will not reach the north pole. Though you may start your journey pointing due south, once you fly past the south pole, assuming that you did not change direction, you would begin flying north (because the Earth is round). While you would eventually reach the north pole, you would not be flying due south when you did.

No. You will reach to the North Magnetic Pole instead, which is a fair distance from the True North Pole, as the magnet always points North due to Earth's magnetic fields.
