Can anybody give me a real-life example of a flight where they ran into
trouble because they hadn't gotten a sectional chart notam?

Houston went through several sectional publications before they got the
Class-B correct (the whole thing was "rotated" about 10 degrees).
Fortunately, it was such a problem that they continued to list the notam on
DUATS.

A better example was out near San Angelo. There was an area out there that
was restricted (for high power radar testing). After a while it became
"published" and was in the back of the AF/D... but it still was NOT shown
on the sectional. Not only was it illegal, but flying through a giant
microwave oven can be hazardous to your health.
