Once again with less light, pics in the last ray of sunlight . . .

location: switzerland, highmoor, near like zurich
date: today
size: very big, about 25 mm

Please have a look at picture 3: black big fly together wir Eristalis pertinax, to compare the size.

Does anyone could give me the ID of this big big fly?
Thanks, Brigitte
