The experienced motorbike rider, who was in his 50s, died at Tibenham Airfield near Long Stratton in Norfolk on Sunday morning.
Cops and paramedics were called to the airfield at around 11am after Matthew crashed at high speed.
No other vehicles were involved in the accident and he was pronounced dead at the scene.
He was due to ride on a half-mile strip of runway at high speed known as a “rolling half mile”.
Matthew set up a group in 2015 supporting veterans living with post-traumatic stress disorder.
He raised money for military charities and funding holidays for families affected by the condition.
He was nominated for the Daily Mirror’s Pride of Britain awards in 2018.
Terminal Velocity Events was the organiser on Sunday, and its website says it specialises in providing a “safe, secure” and “legal environment” for people wanting to drive their vehicle as “fast as you can”.
In a statement shared on social media, company director Matthew Flynn said his “thoughts and prayers are with all Martin’s friends and family”.
