yes I know what the FCOM says.






Mad(flt)Scientist gave you a very good answer - it's a certification requirement, independent of airplane type/manufacturer. In order to be IIIb qualified you have to have working fail-operational system and that's what FMA tells you: CAT3 SINGLE = fail-passive, CAT3 DUAL = fail-operational.

Now I'm curious; were you asked this question by someone who wouldn't take "It's a limitation, for a 's sake!" as an answer?
