£4,000 O.N.O: One World War Two plane used to defeat Hitler for sale on eBay... just don't try to fly it

Piece of history: This 1944 Taylor Craft Auster was used after D-Day when British and Allied forces were beating back the Nazis - and now it is for sale 
 
The 1944 Taylor Craft Auster was used after D-Day when British and Allied forces were beating back the Nazis from Holland and Germany during the closing chapters of the Second World War. The 70 year-old plane, with the registration TJ398, was used to fly low, spot enemy forces and give Allied big-guns the co-ordinates to attack. Owner and military enthusiast Karl Edmondson, 52, from South Shields, hopes his aircraft will be bought by someone who can restore it.
