Most likely Rhamphomyia crassirostris. Certainly the same subgenus, as this male has eyes separated by the frons.

This year Rh.crassirostris is a mass species. But when I discovered Empididae barraging over pond surface I was sure that it is Hilara. To my grate astonishment it is Rh.crassirostris too. Is it known, such behaiviour for Rhamphomyia?

Yes. :) Several other species can be found near the surface of water.
