Answer:

had left is the answer to your question

Answer 2

The plane had left when we reached the airport. (Option 3)

• Had left will be the correct option since the sentence is talking in past tense. We can figure that out from the other half of the sentence which says ‘we reached’ which depicts past tense.

• The idea of tense in English is a way that we use to show time such as - past, present or future. Many languages use tenses to talk about time.
• In English people use the past tense which refers to something that happened earlier , whether it was yesterday , two days ago or many years ago.
