If you follow a compass going north, you reach close to the North Pole.
the first 2 men on the north pole were Matthew Henson and Robert perry. but the first man to step foot on the north pole was Matthew Henson, he was 45minutes ahead of Robert perry meaning he stepped on the north pole 45minutes before Robert perry did. an amazing fact HUH?
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.

The North Pole lies in the Arctic, the South Pole is in the Antarctic. So it'd be impossible to reach North Pole in Antarctic, since it isn't there.
