Is air Force One equipped with secret anti-gravitation technology in the event that the engines fail and the wings fall off?

Yes it is. The technology is called parachutes. Upon failure of the aircraft, anyone wishing to escape it may put on one of these backpack like devices and jump from the plane. During the fall, the parachute is deployed. It uses a large air-gathering canopy to increase air resistance. This resistance counteracts force of gravity and makes the fall survivable.

In case the engines fail and the wings fall off? Boy, the Pentagon really was taken to the cleaners by the lowest bidder on that job, if the wings can fall off a 747 jet plane.
And no, because there is no anti-gravitation technology on Earth at this time.

No, but I believe you have an active imagination. I think I read one time that the planes used for the President are made by the same companies that make them for the regular airlines. Not saying that Air Force One doesn't have a few more special features, but the basics of the planes are the same.

No.
I am very sure that if Boeing (which built the Presidential 747s) had such technology, they would not bother with the time, effort, and expense of putting wings on the airplane in the first place.

No, it does however have two extra large gas tanks located in the cargo hold in the very back, one on the left and one on the right so it can stay airborn longer. BTW I assumed you were talking about the presidential 747, because any aircraft that has the president on board would have the call sign Airforce 1.

secret anti-gravitation technology ?
Eh, . . . No.

the only anti-gravity technology i can think of is the ground.

No, but it has really clean bathrooms.
