But only the underlying kernel part is actually real-time, the Linux process wouldn't be, right? That leads me to the question: Shouldn't all things in a rocket be real time? Are they "post-poning" stuff like telemetry and other communications?

All critical processes can run outside of Linux, in hard real-time fashion. Linux is used for non-critical things, like networking... The whole RTLinux includes Linux (non-RT part) and a hard RT part, for which you can write your code.
