Have you seen one fly? They have wings but the only time I've ever seen a roach fly was at school and it was way too big to be german

Some of us Germans can be incredibly big so I wouldn't be sure about that either.

I grew up in the Philippines. I don't know what kind we had there but they were big (1.5-2" in length) and they definitely flew.

German cockroaches don't get nearly that size
