The First Flight Over the North Pole in 1926 Took off From Ny-Ålesund and Landed Near Teller Alaska. The First Flight to Fly Over the South Pole in 1929 Both Took off From and Landed at Little America Exploration Base. Which in No Way Is the Same Thing.

And somehow they accomplished this without compasses working. Which later proved problematic in 1979:

So the top half of earth is semispheric and the bottom half is flat? I'm down.

I wonder if the magnetometers in people's brains go haywire if the pole passes through their head...

You have a lot of trouble visualizing things don't you?

Now do you understand why you can pass over the North Pole but not the South?

But earth is a torus and that's why you can fly east and arrive where you started. The ice in your poles separates our isolated 6 continents from the neighboring 6 continents. Earth is way bigger/longer than they say. Only a select few individuals can move or communicate between "planets" in our toroidal ecosystem.

Like, earth is a cylinder and our North pole is touching the next earth's south pole, on and on in a great arching line.

Yes, that is one belief. But you can't just type a reply assuming everyone reading it knows that's what you were thinking. Where as the flat earth model is a little more self explanatory. Your theory also flies in the face of reality were flights do travel over the north pole.

When I typed my first comment it was tongue in cheek imagining earth as a snowglobe shape flat on the bottom and bulbous on the north half.
