The correct answer is "A" because it's in simple past tense.

hello guys,

i just want to note that, there is a parallelism error in your sentence:

" and take off like ..... " so how could we use the simple past tense while " take off " is simple present form.

please correct me if i am wrong.

thank you

Jonathan Saw UFO should be in past tense
So narrow down to A .b and E
E -include didnt and never -OUT
B-dont and saw .. timeline si not correct

So A is correct answer
