FAA Clears Bombardier for Learjet 85 1st Flight

Sorry... this story is a bit old.  (I am once again in the "catch up mode" as life continues to throw curve balls our way.)  Can anyone clear this one up?  The story at the link below implies that Bombardier has been issued the first ever FAA Flight Test Permit.  This sounds unlikely, but maybe this is something that the agency has just begun?  Anyway, maiden flight for the -85 should be soon, if it has not already occured.
