Narrative:
I was notified today that I flew an aircraft with tape on a static port. I was never notified by the first officer who conducted the preflight and post flight that anything was wrong or out of place. We or ATC never noticed any altitude irregularities. I had no indication that anything was out of place or wrong during flight.
