Maintenance, repair
What could a "Wart" be in the context of aircraft maintenance & repair (at an EASA Part 145 Maintenance Organization)? I doubt it could be a warden, which is the only semi-plausible literal translation I can find.

Selected
(aircraft) maintenance engineer
As stated in the dicussion section (see above), EASA uses the terms aircraft maintenance engineer, technician and mechanic. So, in this particular case, the word maintenance should be included.

EASA Part-66 is exactly the right context, too!"

Der Flugzeugwart ist als Teil der Wartungsstaffel für die generelle Wartung und kleinere Reparaturen am Flugzeug zuständig. Größere Reparaturen werden dann z.B. vom Triebwerker als Teil der Instandsetzungsstaffel durchgeführt.
Vielleicht hilft ja folgende Seite weiter http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos179.htm

Note from asker:
| Was wäre dann der Unterschied zu Fluggerätemechaniker, das wohl auch aircraft mechanic ist? |

Discussion
Obviously, this is directly related to "Wartung", although it seems rather idiosyncratic usage.
http://www.easa.europa.eu/ws_prod/s/doc/Syllabus_Part66_Deta...
I have no idea which term "Wart" specifically refers to, but, in translation here it is used for maintenance engineer:
Wir suchen einen Part 66 CAT A oder B1.3 lizenzierten Wart
EASA Part 66 CAT B1.3 C Aircraft Maintenance Engineer

Although, of course, terms like Tankwart are used throughout Germany. Might this mean "attendant", like "petrol station attendant"?
Die Aufgaben entsprechen denen eines Wartes, jedoch zusätzlich:
...
Mindestens 4-jährige Tätigkeit bei der Herstellung oder Instandhaltung von Luftfahrzeugen, davon mindestens 2 Jahre als Wart
