That the threat of invasion was removed from Britain. The crossing of thre English Channel was a difficult thing for the Germans to undertake, control of the sea passage was highly unlikely because of the power of the Royal Navy and the lack of Capital ships the Kreigsmarine had at that time. Therefore some, at least limited, air superiority would be required over any given beachead. This was never achieved beause the RAF were able to keep the Luftwaffe at bay. D Day in comparison 4 years later both sea & air superiority for the Allies was virtually 100% ( I think one ship was lost to submarine attack, there was little or no Luftwaffe activity over the beaches.)
