Not at airplane altitudes and speeds.

Then why are they marked on the charts?

Well, I can see electricity can be added to that ever growing list
of things about which you know nothing.

Are you saying that sparks are something other than electricity? What are
they, then?

Magnetos generate pulses measured in the thousand of volts and microamps
of current.

Volts? Microamps? These units are used in electrical engineering, not
plumbing.

Even if they were hooked to something else, which they
aren't, the power generated would be useless for powering something like
a GPS.

But that wasn't the assertion. The assertion was that there was no
electricity in some aircraft. If they have typical powerplants, there is
electricity.

My god, everytime you say something, more ignorance just roles out.

I'm not the one making the mistakes.
