Not quite an answer to the question but I once went inside BOS, DCA, and IAD all in the same day and never set foot on a plane.
Was on a road trip from Boston to the DC area. Dropped a friend off at BOS in the morning, as he was getting his bag out of the trunk it got snagged on a six-pack of beer and they fell to the ground and shattered. Spent a few minutes cleaning that up and went inside to throw away the broken glass. Then we drove down to DC, tried to pick up a different friend at IAD. After a bunch of "I'm at baggage claim 3" -- "me too, don't see you! What terminal are you in?" discovered they we weren't at the same airport. Had a sudden fear they had flown to Dallas, but turned out they were at DCA, so drove there to pick them up. (Their return trip was from IAD and they had gotten confused and told me the wrong one.)
Felt like I was on a driving tour of airports! Tried to get my friends to go to BWI but it was like midnight and they weren't having it.

Added last winter:
In only:
YUL (drove to YQB)
Out only:
STR (flew back to ZRH)
YQB
Dropped from list (i.e. flew in after previously flying only out)
PLZ - flew in from CPT - drove last time
Adding this winter:
In only: MEX, SJC
Out only: PBC, LAX
This is an open jaw ticket EU-MEX//LAX-EU. I'll spend some time in both MEX and Puebla, before filling the gap with PBC-DFW-SJC and driving the Pacific Coast Highway.

Updated list:
- LBG (Paris Le Bourget). My very first flight originated there and stopped at SNN (Shannon, Ireland) and YQX (Gander, Newfoundland, Canada) on its way to IDL (Idlewild Airport, now JFK). Given that no commercial flights have used LBG in decades I'm unlikely ever to land there.
- MRS (Marseille Provence Airport). Landed twice, never departed.
- LNK (Lincoln, Nebraska). Departed only.
- SNA (Orange County, CA). Departed only, on same itinerary as the LNK departure.
- SAF (Santa Fe, New Mexico). Landed only. The coolest airport I've ever seen. Baggage claim is a metal-roller-type slanting conveyor that's maybe thirty feet long.
