I'd guess that any aeroplanes still flying that originally had cartridge-start RR Avons would have been converted to use the electric start that civil RA29 Avons (and perhaps some military ones) had.

Yes it's a very interesting thread for one who's lived near Luton for 66 years and had various flights to and from, and has aeroplanes heading there overhead most days!
