They were fighting above their homeland. If a plane was shot down, usually the pilot could bail out and parachute to the ground. A British pilot could then get his bearings and take a train back to base, whereas a German pilot would probably get captured. They were also close to their bases as well, and the Luftwaffe wasn't really prepared for fighting alone without assisting the Army.
