Would be handy if you gave the zip file name and where you downloaded it. 🙄

In the Select a Flight Screen - it should be listed under Boeing in the Manufacturer Box and then Growler can you check?

OK - Can you go into C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9\Aircraft and check if there is a folder named EA-18_Growler

That's Ok now what you have to do is to copy/paste the EAg-18 Growler Folder from where you have it to the main FS9/Aircraft folder. You can go back and delete the extraneous folders when you are sure that the Growler is installed in FS9.
