Narrative:
My flight review expired at the end of month. I had been in state X for most of next month and then spent two weeks in place Y for yet the next month. When I returned the covid-19 pandemic was starting to take over everyone's life. I had no time for flying in that period; until I was asked to fill in for an instructor who was leaving. For whatever reason; I never looked at my flight review date and missed it. I flew on that date and four subsequent dates before something made me look. I was out! Inattention to details has never been a problem till coronavirus came along. Purely human error - mine. Sorry.
