A method for controlling a wind turbine during a safety operation is disclosed. A safety pitch control system is provided to pitch the blades individually at a number of pre-set approximately constant pitch rates including a first pitch rate and a second pitch rate lower than the first pitch rate. In response to a command for initiating the safety operation the blades are pitched towards a feathering position by the safety pitch control system including the blades being pitched according to a safety pitch strategy wherein for all the blades the pitch rate is changed between the first pitch rate and the second pitch rate according to a function of each blade azimuthal position. This is done such that each blade in turn is closer to the feathering position than the others. |
