DeepInfo.com: Admiral Byrd's flights over the Poles & Hollow Earth

The following quotes are found in the book "Hollow Earth" by Raymond Bernard, and most other sources suggesting a Hollow Earth. I have not yet verified them by getting actual newspapers.
1926: Admiral Byrd claimed to fly over the North Pole in 1926. It is claimed that later he verbally admitted that he failed to reach it and had to turn around, but couldn't afford to admit it. It is claimed that as he flew into darkness with gauges gone haywire, he was shocked at the terrain changes, and had to turn around.
1947?, February: In a Radio Broadcast, Admiral Byrd said before his Pole flight from a base 400 miles from the Pole: "I'd like to see that land beyond the Pole. That area beyond the Pole is the center of the great unknown."
After-flight radio commentaries were: "During his Arctic flight of 1,700 miles BEYOND the Pole he reported by radio that he saw below him, not ice and snow, but land areas consisting of mountains, forests, green vegetation, lakes and rivers, and in the underbrush saw a strange animal resembling the mammoth...." and The air temperature outside the cockpit measured 74 degrees (Bernard, p.
1955, November: Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd, before departing to explore land beyond the South Pole stated "This is the most important expedition in the history of the world."
1956, January: "Admiral Byrd led another expedition to the Antarctic and there penetrated for 2,300 miles BEYOND the South Pole.
A 1/13/1956 radio announcement said: "On January 13, members of the United States expedition penetrated a land extent of 2,300 miles BEYOND the Pole. The Flight was made by Rear Admiral George Dufek of the United States Navy Air Unit."
Another Radio announcement on January 13, 1956: "On January 13, members of the United States expedition accomplished a flight of 2,700 miles from the base at McMurdo Sound, which is 400 miles west of the South Pole, and penetrated a land extent of 2,300 miles beyond the Pole." (Radio announcement, confirmed by press of February 5.)
In a Radio clip, Byrd said on March 13, 1956, "The present expedition has opened up a vast new land."
1957: In 1957, before his death, Byrd said: "that enchanted continent in the sky, land of everlasting mystery"
One possible error in the book "Hollow Earth" by Raymond Bernard is that he states that Admiral Byrd's North Pole flight was in 1947, which contradicts official info that he was photographically mapping Antarctica at the time.

Why would an Admiral make such statements? What did he see?

Ray Palmer, editor of "Flying Saucers" magazine [& later of Amazing Fantasy] wrote:
"Byrd flew to the North Pole, but did not stop there and turn back, but went for 1,700 miles beyond it, and then retraced his course to his Arctic base (due to his gasoline supply running low). As progress was made beyond the Pole point, iceless land and lakes, mountains covered with trees, and even a monstrous animal, resembling the mammoth of antiquity, was seen moving through the underbrush; and all this was reported via radio by the plane occupants. For almost all of the 1,700 miles, the plane flew over land, mountains, lakes and rivers."
     The December 1959 issue (5000 copies) disappeared.
     One distributor got 750 copies - they disappeared and so did the distributor.
Ray Palmer also wrote: "No human being has ever flown directly over the North Pole and continued straight on. Your editor thinks it should be done and done immediately. We have the planes to do it. Your editor wants to know for sure whether such a flight should wind up in any of the countries surrounding the North Pole, necessarily exactly opposite the starting point. [Such a flight would have to be e.g. from L.A. to India, or from NY to Vietnam, all others go East or West of the North Pole.] Navigation is not to be made by the compass, or by triangulation on existing maps, but solely by gyro compass on an undeviated straight course from the moment of take-off to the moment of landing. And not only a gyro compass in a horizontal plane, but one in a vertical plane also (after one enters the polar opening)."
            1,700 miles from the North Pole are Siberia, Spitzbergen, Alaska, Canada, Finland,
             Norway, Greenland, & Iceland, not iceless/snowless Mountains and Lakes.
Ray Palmer & others have stated that there are more observations of flying saucers near the polar regions than elsewhere.

OK, let's take a reality check here, folks
Am I saying that NASA, scientists, the US Gov't, & the media are all hiding info from us?
Is the North Pole frozen and barren, or warm, teaming with life & hollow?:

Standard Thought:	Arctic Explorers' findings:
Because of the Arctic's angle to the sun, the farther north you go, the colder it should get by standard theory. The entire Arctic region is claimed to be frozen solid, so Cook and Peary both claimed to have reached it by sled.	Some 19th Century explorers claim that at some points (e.g. Fridtjof Nansen north of the New Siberian Islands) the Arctic ice mass stops as you go north, and there is only clear ocean from there on.
Only Ice and Snow; barren of animals, plants and insects.	Explorers found massive driftwood, pollen, animals and insects
Animals should migrate south for the winter in Greenland	Explorers observed that animals all migrated north
Wind & ocean currents from the north should be colder.	Wind & ocean currents from the north are warmer in winter.

The book"The Hollow Earth", by Dr. Raymond Bernard (NY: University Books [& Secaucus] 1969) refers to 2 previous books that summarize Arctic explorers' articles.
1) 1906: William Reed's book: "Phantom of the poles" has an extensive bibliography representing the reports of Arctic explorers.
2) 1920: Marshall B. Gardner's book: "A Journey to the Earth's Interior or Have the Poles Really Been Discovered?" documents 20 years of research, based on the reports of Arctic explorers, supplemented by astronomical evidence. (cited in Bernard, p. 119) - "With 50 books, chiefly on Arctic exploration, in his bibliography, he was most thorough in his research." (Bernard, p.121).

Many Arctic Explorers from the 19th Century stated that 1) the Arctic ice mass stops as you travel north, 2) after that there is only ocean (not ice), and 3) that winds and currents from the North are warm in winter.
Kane (an Arctic explorer) writes: 'Some circumstances which he (McGary) reports seem to point to the existence of a north water all the year round; and the frequent water-skies, fogs, etc., that we have seen to the southwest during the winter, go to confirm the fact.'" (Bernard, p.107)
Greely speaks of open water the year round. (Bernard, p.107)
"Nansen, who probably went farther north than any other explorer, remarks in his book that it was a strange feeling to be sailing in the dark night to unknown lands, over an open rolling sea, where no ship had ever been before, and remarks how mild the climate was for September. The farther north he went, the less and less ice he saw." (Bernard, p.107)

Arctic explorers also found dust in the air and on snow and icebergs, indicating volcanic activity. Massive volcanic activity could cause warm winds and water currents from the north.

Arctic explorers also found massive red, yellow and green pollen from unknown tropical plants covering the snow massively. This cannot be from volcanic action, but from a large land mass with tropical plants.
(One Arctic Explorer) Kane, in his first volume, p.44, says: 'We passed the Crimson Cliffs at Sir John Ross in the forenoon of August 5th. The patches of red snow could be seen clearly at the distance of ten miles from the coast. It had a fine deep rose hue.' (p.111 Bernard quoting Reed, who quotes Kane).

Arctic explorers also document massive amounts of driftwood coming from the north.
Commander McClure explored Banks Land and found immense quantities of trees thrown in layers by glacious action, which evidently brought them from the north. In one ravine he found a pile of trees closely packed, to a height of forty feet. While some wood was petrified, much of it was of recent origin. These trees were found far beyond the latitude where trees grow.(Bernard, pp. 128-129)

"it can be shown by quoting those who made the farthest advance toward the supposed Poles, that it is warmer, that vegetation shows more life, that game is more plentiful than farther south," (Bernard, p.108)
"In 'Captain Hall's Last Trip,' we read: 'We find this a much warmer country than we expected, bare of snow and ice. We have found that the country abounds with life, and with seals, game, geese, ducks, musk-cattle, rabbits, wolves, foxes, bears, partridges, lemmings, etc.'" (p.108 Bernard)
"Gardner points out that birds and animals migrate to the north in winter to find warmer weather. He also notes that when explorers go north of 80 degrees north latitude, they find the water to become warmer due to warm currents coming from the polar region, and the air becomes warmer due to warm winds from the north. They cause the open sea, in place of ice, in the extreme north. They also find re pollen on icebergs and glaciers, and find logs and other debris washed ashore by those warm currents from the north." (p.121 Bernard)

The evidence from Arctic explorers appears to disprove that the Arctic is a cold frozen wasteland of just ice and snow. It appears to be teaming with life coming from the North. Admiral Byrd appears to have found a vast iceless/snowless continent of mountains and trees, teaming with life, including the wooly mammoth. The air temperature was 74 degrees. The same thing was found at the South Pole.

Admiral Byrd's flights "BEYOND" the Poles & into "Hollow Earth"?

Why would an Admiral make such statements? What did he see?
