Narrative:

Was flying low level VFR cho to fdk underneath class B airspace (iad). Confirmed location of ADIZ on current sectional before flight. Thought I was well clear of ADIZ. Unaware of NOTAM adding all of iad airspace to ADIZ ground to FL180. After obtaining squawk code, was informed to contact potomac approach by telephone. Current sectional did not properly identify ADIZ. I should have checked NOTAM though I was not landing at dulles. Would suggest adding this important information to sectionals.
