Thank you, thank you. ANOTHER pet peeve of mine. An arrow is correct. You can use 'a' before a word that begins with a consonant sound. An should be used with words that begin with simple vowel sounds. It is the sound more than the spelling that should guide your ear.
a word (starts with the consonant sound W)
a hose
an eagle
an ion
an iron
an ounce
a European (starts with the sound of the consonant Y)
an Asian
a yellow submarine
a wallet
a university (starts with the sound of the consonant Y)
Many people still say: an historic event. I think the sound of 'an historic' is preferable, but I cannot fault people who would say 'a historic'.
