    Этот смелый и мужественный лётчик был его, Володиным, отцом, и разговаривать с ним на равных, задумчиво подбирать нужные слова - какое это было ни с чем не сравнимое ощущение! (Ю. Герман, Дело, которому ты служишь) — This tough and daring flyer was his father, and to be able to talk to him as an equal, to meditate on the right words to say and say them, was a sensation comparable with nothing in the world.

    Одному - тридцать пять, другому - под шестьдесят. Как-то неудобно Подобеду быть с директором на равных, ещё неудобнее направлять его. (В. Попов, Обретёшь в бою) — One was thirty-five, the other nearly sixty. Podobed often felt uncomfortable in a position that put him on an equal footing with the director and sometimes even required that he proffer him guidance.
