I believe the great planes p-51 has a solid sheet balsa fin.the built up fin in the photo is common with nitroplanes and other china arf imports of this size.

Don't know which Mustang P-51 it is but it is a very nice-looking plane.

Another question...how much do you think it's worth? The owner has passed away and I'm trying to sell all of his airplanes however without knowing much about this particular model it is very hard for me to price it right.
