A pivot thrust reverser includes a first pivot door forming a first portion of a nacelle when stowed and second pivot door forming a second portion of the nacelle when stowed. The first pivot door and second pivot door each form a portion of a surface of a bypass duct when in a stowed position. In the deployed position the first pivot door and the second pivot door circumferentially surround a portion of an inner surface of a bypass duct such that when the pivot thrust reverser is deployed during engine operation a fan bypass stream is redirected while both a core stream and a nacelle ventilation stream flow in substantially the same manner as when the pivot thrust reverser is stowed.
