Just in case it might look a little confusing, the first row number to be
returned is:

17 minus the last number.

So, your first column starts with 8,
17-9 = 8

For your second column to start with 9,
Change the -9 to -8
3rd column -6
4th column -11

Try this:

=INDEX(INDIRECT("'FP
"&INT(ROWS($1:4)/4)&"'!I:I"),17*(MOD(ROWS($1:1)-1,4)+1)-9)

And copy down.

Just to see if I can make it more clea what I am trying to achieve, this
is
an example of a group of cells in the series:

='FP 1'!$I$8 ='FP 1'!$I$9 ='FP 1'!$I$11 ='FP 1'!$I$6
='FP 1'!$I$25 ='FP 1'!$I$26 ='FP 1'!$I$28 ='FP 1'!$I$23
='FP 1'!$I$42 ='FP 1'!$I$43 ='FP 1'!$I$45 ='FP 1'!$I$40
='FP 1'!$I$59 ='FP 1'!$I$60 ='FP 1'!$I$62 ='FP 1'!$I$57
='FP 2'!$I$8 ='FP 2'!$I$9 ='FP 2'!$I$11 ='FP 2'!$I$6
