CorrectNot quiteAnswer B

Correct answer: B

Explanation

  1. P is the subject with a "who" clause about him, closed by a comma. R gives his verb, "has flown to".

  2. "To" needs a place: S "more than forty countries", and Q says over what time.

  3. So the order is PRSQ: "My uncle, who is a pilot, has flown to more than forty countries in the last ten years."

Worth noting

PSRQ puts "more than forty countries" before the verb, and "to" then points at "in the last ten years".
