A couple of questions. How will you do a “mag check†if the coils are always powered? |
You don't do a mag check on things that are not
mags . . . If you've got a coil misbehaving
the engine will let you know about it without
any sort of preflight check.

I'll have to add my vote. While it isn't technically a *mag* check, it's still wise to check both systems just like the traditional mag check. Those with dual electronic ignitions will tell you that you don't get any 'mag drop' at all when switching an ignition off during 'mag check', so if one ignition is dead prior to takeoff, you wouldn't discover it unless the other one died in flight. But you'll surely know when the good one is switched off during 'mag check'.
