Nr 1:
Nr 2:
Nr 3: (Hoverfly but which one?)
Nr 4:
Nr 5: At first glance I thought this was the same as nr. 4, but the head is clearly different.
Nr 6:

I would say:
1. Asilidae?
2. Tachinidae (
Tachina fera? - Chris or Theo will confirm)
3. Syrphidae
Eristalis arbustorum
4.
Empis tesselata male
5.
Empis tesselata female
6. Syrphidae
Tropidia scita

First of all. please always add data on where (and when) the photos were taken. I will assume there are from Austria.
#1
Dioctria [
atricapillus] (Asilidae)
#2
Tachina sp. (Tachinidae)
#3
Eristalis [
rupium-complex] (Syrphidae)
#4-5:
Empis sp., male and female (Empididae)
#6
Tropidia scita

And, please, post apparently unrelated images in separate threads (as mentioned in the Forum - Code of Conduct which you have agreed to :P)).

The Tachina, it's either fera or magnicornis
(this is not much help, I know)

N.3 is very probably Eristalis lineata (=horticola) male.
