That's everything on file so far — TailWiki checks the FAA registry daily and adds new entries as N5644W's record changes.
The pilot reported that, while landing on the 1,300 ft. long, gravel-covered runway, he inadvertently touched down with excess airspeed and did not have enough braking action to stop the airplane. The airplane subsequently impacted a snow berm at the end of the airstrip and nosed over which resulted in substantial damage to the left-wing struts. The pilot stated that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
