Do you think Eddie Van Halen got the inspiration for the song Intruder from flange squeal?
I've included a link so you can give it a listen and tell me what you think.

I Googled “Flange Squeal” but I don’t understand the connection to VH’s song

The song itself is not about flange squeal but the sounds in the song replicate flange squeal in my opinion. I think Eddie Van Halen heard that sound and wanted to replicate it and did in the song Intruder.

Are you referring to the squeal a railroad wheel makes?

Ok, now I hear it but I voted no that it didn’t influence the notes in the song. But I can understand why someone might think it does.

You hear it therefore it is.

Somebody in Van Halen must have liked trains I bet it was Eddie.
