I don't see a kernel panic there. That looks like normal boot messages
(as far as I can see).
I've seen this quite often as well on airplanes. But in every instance
it has been due to hardware (or power supply) problems. No doubt the
crew has been trained to reboot if in doubt.
Question: Given that at least some reboots are inevitable (power bumps,
etc.) why don't we see any Windows logos so prominently displayed?

Unfortunately, no pun in ten did.
