Wrong. - Because there is no second "that" before "and had not made" ==> It's not clear that "criticized || had not made" OR "had banned || had not made".
(B) "former"和 "for eight years"的组合不符合逻辑；原句表示Franco女士担任该委员会的负责人达8年。"The former head for eight years"指的是她不再担任该委员会负责人后的一段时间；换句话说，她在某个不确定的时间段内是负责人，但她在八年前离开了这个工作。包括这一信息是为了证明她批评航空公司的资格，但知道她在多长时间前离开工作岗位并不能证明她的资格。此外，副词 "simply"的位置不恰当；它的意思是描述航空公司禁止以前使用的物品的行为，所以应该放在 "banned"的前面。
