Well, my hair's been contracting for about that long.
If you're going for.a particular job or contract, emphasise that
experience. On your resume, give both equal billing but put your
preferred type first.
OTOH, the consensus on the list seems to be that you should order
your resume around skills rather than lists of previous positions.
