IIRC, Germany was trying to get air superiority over England before actually invading. RAF can't fly accomplishes almost the same thing - English planes can't attack the invading forces. It has the side effect of no German planes can support the invading forces - I'm not certain how critical they would have thought that need to be during the first couple of days of the invasion. They certainly need it for Blitzkrieg - but I'm not certain the initial landings qualified as that.
