Best answer

In conditional sentences if your conditional sentence (if I ...) is in past perfect then in resultant sentence 'would have' will be used.

If I had extra clothes, I would have donated them.

When conditional sentences are imaginary sentences like if I were a cricketer.....then in resultant sentences we have to use 'would'.

References: 

Correct Option: A would fly.
