Narrative:

Operated an aircraft with an expired medical. With covid 19 causing the FAA to extend a grace period I knew I had time to get it scheduled when things opened back up. I had scheduled an appointment that got canceled. I heard that the FAA had extended the grace period again into august; upon further investigation I believe that info was incorrect. Immediately realizing the issue I scheduled my medical and completed it promptly. The confusion of the FAA dates and crazy schedules with the covid closures and a hectic work schedule contributed to this oversight. I will stay more focused on the situation in the future to make sure I do not operate an aircraft with an expired medical.
