Icarus like it or not being a pilot is all about decision making. And in reality this is the issue with cadet programs, you can't put every decision to make into a book!
How about this, next time I go to work and don't make any decisions, then I will let you know. Otherwise we will pre program the FMS, engineer us out of the cockpit and put us out of work.
It's also as much about judgment as decisions. How many accidents boils down to an error in judgement? Judgement comes down to, shock horror, experience!
