Aftermath

Graham was reportedly inspired to commit the crime by hearing of a similar incident, the Albert Guay affair in Quebec in 1949. Graham's modus operandi was almost an exact replica of Guay's.

United still uses the flight number 629 today on its Washington (National) - Chicago (O'Hare) route.

The bombing of United Flight 629 is depicted in the opening segment of the 1959 movie The FBI Story, starring James Stewart and Vera Miles. Actor Nick Adams portrays Jack Graham.
