due to the Coriolis force will he fly to the southern pole or to the equator?

Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm not sure, but think that Coriolis force is acting on a body when it's in the southern part of Earth to the left (so he will go to the southern pole) and in the northern part to the right (so he will go to the northern pole)
So, in both cases he will go to the poles?Thank you.
