The sheer beauty of this game is the realism & so there's never a sure-fire way to evade. Different things work for different ppl, inc. barrel rolls etc. I've had a modicum of success with outrunning a missile in the right aircraft.
Another trick is to wait until the missile is almost on your 6 (when the missile dot on your hud is almost at the centre graphic of your plane), then rapidly slowing up the throttle, quickly deploy airbrake, dispence chaff/flare & break hard left or right. You can imagine that all this has to be done very quickly.
Whatever you try isn't always gonna work, that's what helps make this title so awesome.
Hopefully there are forum members here that'll read this & are much better than me & will give their own ideas, somethingt that I too can capitalise on.
Good luck!
