Definitley looks like a Tachinid. Wing venation should rule out Muscidae. Also the abdomen is too hairy. Somewhere around Eoristinae (or Tachininae), but Zeegers will help you further.

Looks like a tachinid to me too - but when and where was it seen?

My guess is Theo's Phryno vetula ... even though I have hardly ever seen it here in the UK - it seems to be much commoner in mainland Europe.

Hello Iweit
Have a look on my recent thread called "tachinid" of 7/05/06. Theo proposed Phryno veluta as ID to my photos, also from France. You can compare.
