2 courses - 1 is magnetic the other is true
I assume you referring to the notation (for example if the route is KJAX KTPA) you see 200 and (197T). 200 is the "magnetic course" , it is based on the "magnetic North Pole" and magnetic fields in the earth. 197 is the "true course". True meaning it references the "Geographic North Pole" which is based on a specific geographical location, not magnetic fields. True north and magnetic North are not in exactly the same place. Chapter 15 of the PHAK discusses navigation and charts. http://www.faa.gov/library/manuals/aviation/pilot_handbook/media/PHAK%20-%20Chapter%2015.pdf

2 Courses
Eric, Are you referring to two numbers on a Victor airway? If so, it is merely 2 airways running together for a length. The one you use is up to you. If one of them runs further along your intended route, then use that one. Otherwise, it doesn't matter which one you use and they both take you to the same fix.
