The in-fight entertainment systems I experienced a few years ago whenever I had a camcorder with me, have all had 30Hz frame rates, so probably NTSC. I could tell by the flicker and lines visible in the viewfinder, which vanished when I changed my usual 1/50 sec shutter speed to 1/60 sec (that was in the days when domestic camcorders used to have a greater range of manual settings than today's offerings).
