Hi Pete,

The British National Corpus online version gives 64 instances of 'a Hungarian' as against just a single one of 'an Hungarian'. I would guess that essentially whenever 'h' is used as a consonant, then 'a' is used - except in the cases I mentioned in my note above, where 'an' crops up in certain contexts too.
