The data collected by weather airplanes that fly into the heart of a hurricane are useful mainly for gauging the storm's structure and strength, not for the speed and the path of their movement.
(A) not for the speed and the path of their movement
(B) not for the speed and path of its movement
(C) not the speed and path of its movement
(D) and not the speed and path of their movements
(E) and not for the speed and the path of its movements

(E) and not for the speed and the path of its movements
IMO B
2/3 split
not for v/s and not
,and not will start a new independent clause so not for seems to be good here
more over
for gauiging and not for.....seems to be parallel

down to A and B
A their can refer to planes so B stands
SO IMO B

Rephrase the sentence as,

Option B: The data is useful for gauging X,not for Y.

This is not parallel.Note that ing verb is not in both clauses.

Option C:The data is useful for gauging X,not Y.

This is parallel and concise.

Pick C
