He's required to have all available information. The VFR chart and the
NOTAM were available.

Nope, no such regulation. The "all available information" applies
to preflight planning, NOT what you carry along with you during the
flight.

The regulation requires you to be "familiar" with "all available
information." This pilot obviously did not become "familiar" with the
NOTAM prior to flight. I believe he could easily be cited under 91.103
and I'll bet it would stick.
