If I am Germany with a occupied France and Benelux and Britain is bombing France but I get air superiority over the English Channel. Will they be able to effectively bomb my territories?

Planes slip through hyperspace to get from Britain to France, using some futuristic technology to slip through (or around, or between) the English Channel. So air superiority over the Channel is worthless for your stated purpose.
Actually its more like a wormhole than hyperspace. If it was hyperspace your crystalline entities, I mean fighters, could block the next system, I mean air zone.
Air missions are only evaluated in the zone in which they are conducted and not in any zone that they must pass through to reach the target.
Contesting the Channel is not about protecting Southern England or Northern France from air units. As the Luftwaffe, it is more about trying to damage the RN and its allies in the Channel and influencing their ability to launch naval invasions across it. If you are controlling the RAF etc. it is then about covering your fleet and preventing Seelowe from being launched.
If you want to directly protect and land based targets against air action (including ships in port) you must either put static AA into that state and/or station your fighters directly above the targets being protected.
