Surely the three holer drivers have some sort of reference point (written/visual) that says 'dont pull back any more' when they try to land (one hopes) lot lighter than 225K. Prob level 3-4.
Dont forget that to put the steps on, the recomended position for the operator is to pull the steps onto the aircraft looking above and behind you to get the door and steps sills level. Defo level 2-3 IMHO.
