Britain won the Battle of Britain for several different reasons. Firstly, the German pilots probably only had about 30 minutes in the air before they had to return to refuel, so they were not usually over their targets long enough to cause alot of damage. Secondly, Hitler ordered the aircraft to fly in formation, and to stay in large numbers. This posed a problem as it made it simpler for the British to spot them and also as they could be attacked easier. Thirdly, the British had mastered a new radar system which they set-up all along the coast. This meant that they could detect the German aircraft while they were still flying over the English Channel and this enabled the British to get their pilots ready and up in the air to meet the Germans. Another major factor was that the Britsh pilots spent a significant amount of time in the air, with little time between sorties, and usually only enough for the plane to be refuelled and rearmed and for the pilots to have something quick to eat. These factors combined, along with the sheer determination of the British pilots helped lead the British to victory in the Battle of Britain against the Luftwaffe in the Summer of 1940.
