Consequence and Resulted both mean the same. So, its redundant in C.

D and E are out because of modifier issues.

A is good.

What about B option?
What's the reason to eliminate it?

too near Vs too close, which is right?

I think in B problem is placement of " too near to large jet engines " at the end. Moreover Consequence from sounds odd.

Consequence of is common in usage. I just thought "Choose original sentence when you can't really find a flaw in it".
