    • 1928, Александр Беляев , “Глава четвертая. В стране воспоминаний”, in Борьба в эфире; English translation from Battle in the Ether, (Please provide a date or year):
      Мне приходи́лось когда́-то лета́ть на аэропла́нах. Но ра́зве мо́жно сравни́ть ту громо́здкую, грохо́чущую маши́ну моего́ вре́мени с э́тими кры́льями, кото́рых почти́ не ощуща́ешь!
      Mne prixodílosʹ kogdá-to letátʹ na aeroplánax. No rázve móžno sravnítʹ tu gromózdkuju, groxóčuščuju mašínu mojevó vrémeni s étimi krýlʹjami, kotóryx počtí ne oščuščáješʹ!
