OMF was formed by Mathias Stinnes in 1998 and ceased operations in December 2003.

[1] Stinnes formed OMF Aircraft to produce a certified version of the Stoddard-Hamilton Glastar designated the OMF-100-160 Symphony with certification achieved in 2001.

[1] Realizing that the bulk of the market for this aircraft was in North America, Stinnes set up a production facility in Trois-Rivières, Quebec, Canada with financial help from the Government of Quebec.

The plant building was constructed by the Town of Trois-Rivieres and leased to OMF.

[1] OMF suffered from under-financing during its start-up phase and declared bankruptcy in December 2003, having produced 40 aircraft.
