I guess what it comes down to for me is, if you're a noob (note: NOT a smacktard) and do a couple dumb things here and there, that's fine. Taking a Wespe into battle ONCE is one thing and can be excused, hogging the B17 and crashing on takeoff the whole map is another.
But determining that's ultimately a job for admins, and that's fine with me. (I just think with some of these situations, the calls for kicks, bitching, and so forth on TS aren't necessary, and detract from the game.)

I did not witness the OPs incident, so I cannot comment on it. HOWEVER, this type of thing seems to be happening more and more lately.
That is to say, I've heard a lot on TS lately of regs (and sometimes admins) wanting kicks on people just for being noobs.
We had an incident this evening on Caen, where we as Axis managed to lose all but the front flag, basically we dug our own grave. Back at the last flag, some noob grabbed our Wespe, and proceeded to use it quite inefficiently. But then TS lit up with calls to kick/ban/castrate the poor guy. Keep in mind he wasn't violating any rules, not killing teammates or hijacking. An admin finally spoke up with the comment that if they kicked all noobs, there'd be ~10 ppl on the server.
