Germany's air force was far larger and better than Britain's. Before the battle of Britain Hitler bombed the airfields trying to destroy the RAF. He then turned his attention to all the major cities and industrial areas and so gave the RAF a chance to reagin power. we had very few pilots and so many polish, Czech and french pilots flew for us. we had the hurricane and the spitfire, wheras the Germans had the mesherschmitt 109. But Herman Goering (leader of Germany's air force) wanted the fighters to stay close to the bombers and so they lost the advantage of speed and surprise. The british managed to repel the attack and so a turning point in the war came about.
