DOHA, Qatar (AP) — An organization representing airlines worldwide will offer a list of recommendations in September to improve the tracking of aircraft after the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, the group’s director said Monday.

Tony Tyler made the comments to industry officials and airline CEOs at the annual meeting of the International Air Transport Association in Doha, just three months after the disappearance of the Malaysian plane with 239 people aboard. The IATA represents 240 airlines carrying 84 percent of all passengers and cargo worldwide.
